Tipperary brought the cup back to Thurles by train following their win over Kilkenny in 2010

Photographer Gerry Molumby has shared the above image with Tipperary Live.

Pictured is the last time the Tipperary senior hurling team brought the Liam McCarthy Cup back to Thurles on the train.

Molumby recounts the ringing of the Angelus through the town as the train rolled into Thurles railway station at roughly 6pm on Monday evening, September 6, 2010.

Tipperary captain Eoin Kelly can be spotted at the front of the train with the cup in his hands, won after Tipperary's 4-17 to 1-18 victory over Kilkenny the day before.
