Each stop features a short green video, hand drawn animations of native plants or animals, and interactive text designed to deepen understanding of biodiversity and sustainability.Through funding provided by Iarnród Éireann, a deeper experience and direct community involvement was provided through creative biodiversity workshops, including local nature walks, with students of Castleconnell National School to co create the interactive mural for the railway station.
