Can someone answer me this.

The 16.30 Connolly to Wexford where does that train come from. i.e. is it in the back of connolly or is it a different train which turns into this one?

To me it appears on the platform very early shortly after 1600 which can cause a bottleneck in connolly.

I notice the 13:00 from Sligo stops on platform 5 sometiems instead of 1.

With the 12:55 Rosslare to Connolly arriving around this time also and can sits on the platform for a while to make sure the train is empty and someone else drives it off can lead to northbound trains sitting outside connolly as a result.

Yesterday we sat outside connolly for around 10mins waiting to enter the station.

Sorry for the rant but people end up missing connections as a result of things like this

I don't know the answer to your original question, but there is no excuse for holding trains outside of Connolly at the through platforms unless all three of 5, 6, and 7 are full.
