Headed by DMBSO No. 93, a 12-car 80-class set approaches Knockarney level crossing with the 08.30 Belfast (Central) - Dublin (Connolly) Ireland v France rugby special. The train is a mixture of Northern Ireland Railways' "Suburban" and "Inter-City" liveries. Situated at MP73.41 south of Poyntzpass, Knockarney crossing was eliminated in the late 1990s as part of the Belfast - Dublin line upgrade project.
