Hundreds of people travel back and forth across the Irish border on the Belfast to Dublin train every day. For work and for pleasure, to explore and come home, to journey through what may be about to become the only land frontier between the UK and Europe.

With Brexit coming down the tracks and continued uncertainty about the future nature of the border, poet Leontia Flynn is taking the train between the two cities and back again.

Leontia's poetry mixes with the stories and voices of the people she meets. The homeless man who takes the train for shelter. The cosplay fanatic who's wondering what will happen to his cross border comic book conventions. The elderly woman who uses her time on the train to pray.

As Leontia thinks about her own identity as a Northern Irish poet in a changing political landscape, she's crossing the border by rail, poetry and in words.
