The Irish Traction Group (ITG) is a railway preservation society dedicated to preserving diesel locomotives from Irish railways. It was founded on 4 June 1989 with the intention of attempting to preserve at least one example of every type of diesel locomotive to have operated on the Irish Rail system. The ITG's locomotives and work are spread across two sites: Carrick-on-Suir railway station, and the Downpatrick and County Down Railway (DCDR).
