Used to make this journey many times a year when I was a member of the permanent defence forces that would have been in the late 80s early 90s most of the view hasnt changed that brought back many memories
As youngsters in Ireland, we always loved it when the trains passed by at a leisurely rate, as it provided us a great chance to bounce a few ripe tomatoes off some of the pork-pie-faced blokes who stuck their mugs out the window/door openings. Mon Dieu, what fun. ESPECIALLY if they were holding a pint a' bitters that they then dropped! Ho-Ho-Ho!...as Monsieur Santa would say.
Did this journey many times with my job at the Tourist Board in the North. Sad to see you haven't made a wider audience but then that's this awful platform that does nothing for us plebs! Good to see the subscribers are doing well for you though!

Do you think Ian Paisley has ever made this journey?
@roryj123ok About 2 1/2 hours - not bad for an £8.99 advance web fare.
