Firstly, a massive thank you to ‪@irishrailtrains‬ who was kind enough to let FundTheNINE use his footage for the majority of the video.

Today's video is Part One of a Two-Part video detailing everything about the past and present of FundTheNINE.

FundTheNINE is a railway expansion campaign based in Northern Ireland, and takes heavy inspiration from the late transport researcher, Brian Guckian.

Brian Guckian was from Stilorgan, County Dublin and he had proposed the Northern Ireland Network Enhancement to the Northern Ireland Executive in the late 2000s.

Like many of us, Brian had serious questions about the Northern Irish railway network.

Why did Northern Ireland lose its railways?
Why did Northern Ireland end its rail freight movements?
Will Northern Ireland ever expand its railways?
And how long will it take before the Northern Ireland Executive finally commits to a transport strategy that prioritises rail construction?
