The Long Island Railroad, Bagpipes and Neosels

Our fourth video cast is about the Long Island Railroad. We watch trains on the platform in Babylon, take the train through the central station (where people change trains) in Jamaica, Queens, and then later take the train home from Brooklyn. I look for Irish speakers on the train. Watch the video to see what happens!

Our 23rd podcast starts with some horrible noises made by people trying out the Galician pipes - people who don't know how to play them. Then I talk with Marty Neosel. He is an American who learned his Irish in America - from his mother. Later, I talk with his Mother, Bridget, who is from Tuam in Gallway, but has been in the US since 1957. They don't get to practice their Irish often, but they do keep it going!
