Summary

Follow on from Bullock No. I ( nlireland/6271788935/in/photostream/ ) . This shot was taken looking down from the steamer Dún Aengus as the bullock's "swim" was almost finished...Inisheer islanders bringing a bullock out to the Dublin built steamer, the Dún Aengus, on 31 May 1939 for transport to Galway. This is how livestock had to be transported from the island between 1921 and 1958 until a pier was built on Inisheer (Inis Oírr) in 1997...Date: 31 May 1939..NLI Ref.: INDH3343 ( vtls000250748 )

Images from our photo collections that show those magnificent men (and women) in their flying, choo choo-ing, and driving machines... Oh, and we've cheated, we're adding boats and ships, jaunting cars and carriages, trams too and bicycles - we're completely shameless. So, basically any form of transport - air, sea, land - with the exception of two human feet...
