I have read that the 25 people who use the railway each day, do so in spite of IEs best efforts. Obviously I wouldn't put such accusations in a submission, but it does lead me to conclude that the whole thing stinks to hell.

Therefore, I'm looking for advice on what sort of submission I should make? How I should word it etc. (bear in mind I'm not personally familiar with the line at all).

A few questions:
  1. What, at a fundamental level, makes the line worth trying to save?
  2. How is Irish Rails mal-administration of the line limiting its potential?
  3. What opportunities and social benefits could a properly run line offer?
  4. If the line is saved, what (realistically) should happen next?
