Listen Back: Rail line across the region would be gamechanger says local TD

A newly published Government report has recommended a new rail line to link Cavan and Armagh.

Additionally, the recommendation includes an All Island Strategic Railway Review, published last week.

Moreover, among the recommendations is the reinstatement of the railway between Athlone and Portadown.

Indeed, this would include stops in Cavan, Clones, Monaghan, Armagh and Portadown, allowing links to Belfast. Local TD Deputy Niamh Smyth says a rail service for the region would be a game changer for the locality.

She spoke to Ronan Gargan on the issue.
