When driving past Castlerock golf course some drivers would try and time it so when a golfer was about to swing the train driver would blow the horn at the right time to put them off and it was hilarious seeing some of the golfers reactions when it was timed right but Colm took that to a new level when he was passing the golf course one day the groundsman was on a ride on lawn mower cutting the grass around the top of a bunker and Colm seen this so blew the horn and the groundsman who was concentrating on cutting the grass raised one hand to wave at the train but in doing so the other hand jerked the steering wheel and of course the ride on mower with groundsman on board ended up in the bunker. When Colm was telling me this he was almost crying with laughter.
