History.

In this section we're going to cover a little of the history of 'Drift Inn' from when it was an LLSR Railway station to present day.

 
To the right we have Buncrana station in 1948, complete with period car.

The photographer, H C Casserley, was standing with his back towards the level crossing where the line to Carndonagh crossed the road and headed northwards.

If the trains still ran today, this would be the exact view you would see from the platform part of Shunters Restaurant at 'Drift Inn'.
 
The Railway station today, 'Drift Inn'.
 
Above we have the railway station as it stands today, 'Drift Inn'. The building has been practically untouched from this side angle, proudly proclaiming "established 1863".
