This picture was taken as I crossed the border on 6th September 2004. The Foreground road markings are N3, ROI and the A46 starts at the UK 40mph sign. I think the garage was selling petrol at ROI prices (30% cheaper than UK) but in UK sterling as it straddles the border. The N3 resumes if you follow the A46 to Enniskillen and and take the A509 towards Cavan. N3 starts again about 12 miles north of the town.

N3 - A46 Border Between Ballyshannon and Enniskillen
Photo taken approaching the ROI/NI boder on 6th September 2004. The N3 is about to become the A46 about 3 miles east of Ballyshannon. Note the Irish 'pre worboys' sign on the left.
