I'd like some information on Listowel. I understand the week we are there, Sept 12 to Sept 19, there is the annual Fall Festival and races. It is also home of one of my favorite authors, J.B. Keane.
Listowel actually has a website where you can find lots of information: www.listowel.ie
It's got a really neat train park with a one of a kind 19th century mono rail. Originally steam powered but I think it's now electric.
