ALBERT SAGE
It is with regret that we have to announce the death of Albert Sage (right), who passed away on 2nd October.

Albert was for a long time Infrastructure Manager in the early days of the railway and helped pioneer the techniques that saw the construction of first ever fully-closed railway in Ireland to be reopened here in Downpatrick.
