Oidhreacht agus Díograiseoirí Iarnród Éireann

Tá oidhreacht shaibhir de stair ailtireachta, thionsclaíoch agus shóisialta ag Iarnród Éireann le fada an lá ar théann siar go dtí níos mó ná 150 bliain.

Tá oifig oidhreachta na cuideachta freagrach as na struchtúir, déantáin agus suiteálacha cosanta go léir a chaomhnú ar fud an líonra, lena léirítear stíleanna sainiúla na gcuideachtaí a thóg iad.

Tá beartas oidhreachta Iarnród Éireann dírithe ar;

• caomhnú an rud is fearr ón am atá thart i gcomhthéacs an chórais oibriúcháin iarnróid
• dul i dteagmháil le grúpaí pobail agus le comhlachtaí díograiseacha
• oibriú traenacha gaile seanré a éascú thar bhealaí áirithe chun freastal ar an margadh turasóireachta iarnróid atá ag fás i gcomhar le Cumann Buan-Choimeádta Iarnróid na hÉireann

The Casino Model Railway Museum

The Casino Model Railway Museum is a Children’s Interpretative Centre which gives visitors a chance to see what it is like to drive a life-sized Iarnród Éireann train engine carriage.

Housed in the beautifully restored Casino ‘Cottage Orné’ in the heart of Malahide Village this exciting project has been delivered thanks to a collaboration between Fingal County Council, Iarnród Éireann and Alstom.

The visitor attraction maximizes technology, with layered sights and sounds and digital screens on the windows on the carriage to help add to the experience. All these elements deliver educational and experiential content with energy and momentum. As each new subject is introduced you dramatically exit dark tunnels of fast-moving dappled light. To enhance the interactive nature of the experience, tactile and interactive elements have been incorporated allowing guests to engage with the content and experience as the journey unfolds.

The concept is to encourage children’s natural curiosity through interactive elements as their train journey unfolds, enabling them to engage, connect and be taken on an immersive rail journey. The Museum aims to appeal to a younger audience while still engaging with all demographics. The start and end point of your rail journey is dictated by you the user, as you board and disembark from the train. It is a self-guided experience, delivered through a continuous loop, and you can hop on or off at any time. The exhibit is aimed at children between five and seven years of age and has been designed with the neurodiverse in mind.

The Museum also offers a close-up look at the exquisite craftsmanship of Cyril Fry’s hand-crafted models. All hand-painted and considered the most elaborate in Ireland. There is also an interactive display, where you can watch the modern working models and learn about the Irish Railway and Tramway System. Through touch screens you can get more context on individual trains and Irish Rail history. The Cyril Fry corner is an award-winning area that is a representation of his workshop and demonstrates his attention to detail.

Now a thriving rail museum receiving visitors from home and abroad, the Casino Model Railway Museum is an integral heritage attraction to the village and the broader region of Fingal, it is located next to Malahide Train Station providing easy access for families to travel there by train.
