Remarks & Notes 
The West Offaly Power Station tippler functions by rotating through 360 degrees, dumping peat out of the loaded wagons into the receiving pit below. Dumping is well underway in this scene; while the tippler rotates, the wagon puller (running on the foreground track and connected to the massive chain) shuttles back to this end of its run to set up for pushing the train ahead another two car-lengths.
