 Signalling in Ireland
Most of the railways became part of the CIE (Córas Iompair Éireann) in 1945, which in turn became Iarnród Éireann in 1985.
One NX panel is known to have been installed at Drogheda in 1994, controlling North Dublin, but no others are known of and all subsequent SSI signalling (called CTC) is controlled through a computer interface.

 Michael Scott Architect (1905-1989) - Coras Iompair Eireann [Archeire, Irish Architecture Online]
Before Scott went to France, he became involved with Córas Iompair Éireann (CIE) the National Transport Company which came into being on the 1 January 1945 as a result of the Transport Act of 8 December 1944.
Indeed at one time Reynolds wanted CIE to take over Scott's practice and have Scott and his team as in-house company architects, but Scott resisted, thinking of the political interference in projects and in the hiring of staff that would be incurred.
So naturally enough, Scott got control of any CIE commissions that were going, being appointed Consultant Architect to CIE by Reynolds.
