Campaign launched to reopen rail links in North West

Public meetings are to be held in the coming weeks as a campaign is launched to bring back rail links to the North West.

Lobby group ‘Into the West’ has launched the campaign and will be hosting meetings in Omagh, Derry, Strabane and Dungannon throughout November ahead of the publication of a cross-border rail review.

The stations and rail lines which connected the west were stripped away in the 1950s and 1960s, with Co Tyrone and Co Fermanagh left without a functioning train station.
