In August 1867, a routine commuter train running along the Irish Sea from Enniscorthy to Dublin approached the Ramscalp Bridge. The bridge, just south of Bray Head, had rails and sleepers replaced the evening before and "thoroughly" inspected. Ten trains passed over the ravine without incident. Not so for the 6:30 a.m. Enniscorthy train. As it approached the trestle at 9:30 that morning, things would forever change for the lives of all those aboard.
The site of disaster exists today-an abandoned tunnel and foundation mark the location. However, many contemporary passengers are unaware of the tragic history but a few meters from where they travel today. What Happened at Bray Head? recounts the before and after of the disaster and includes many images and illustrations.
