On Sunday 11^th August 1912 a special train from Killybegs conveyed about four hundred passengers to Letterkenny, where they transferred to the Burtonport line for a pilgrimage to the Holy Well at Doon.  The visitors had ample time to attend twelve o’clock Mass in St Eunan’s Cathedral.  On the home journey an hour and a half was given between trains, which enabled those travelling to have refreshments.  A large number of the pilgrims had to journey many miles in the early morning from distant localities in the parishes of Glen and Kilcar to join the train at Killybegs.  The special left Letterkenny for Killybegs at 6.15 p.m.
