15th Sept 1941. 

A fine day but dull, with drizzle all over central plains in evening & through which our train ran from Castlebar to Mulligar, but no rain at Westport which our train left at 4.50 & none in Dublin, where we arrived about 1 A.M., having been kept at Millingar to wait for the Sligo connexion & eventually sent on without its passengers.  [Next day I was told the Sligo passengers reached Dublin at 4 A.M.!]  It is stated that these delays are due to "saving coal", but where the "saving" comes in I can't say & the Mayo & Galway portions of the train were quite up to time till Mullingar was reached.

Did not collect during the day!

END OF MAY TRIP: Sept. 1941.
