Thing to Do Category: Model and Historic Railways
The West Cork Model Railway Village is the first of its kind in Ireland. It allows the visitor to experience the sights and sounds of life in West Cork during the 1940s. Situated beside the picturesque Clonakilty Bay, the Model Village depicts, in miniature, life and industry in West Cork as they were 50 years ago. The working railway, a model of the long closed West Cork line, is at the core of the experience. Many of the industrial buildings reconstructed in the village had their own system of power generation during the era. Their recreation is of educational and visual interest. The four towns on view are Dunmanway, Clonakilty, Bandon and Kinsale. Off the N71 in the award winning town of Clonakilty on Inchydoney Road, overlooking beautiful Clonakilty Bay.
