Few Questions from a Newbie
 
Hi all, hopefully some of these can be answered, as someone who has a newly found enthusiasm for Irish railway movements i am interested in knowing the following:

1. Is there anywhere that weekly timetables are published for non passenger movements? (Freight, empty stock movements, spraying etc)

2. Particularly in relation to the Dublin-Rosslare line... Where are the train sets that finish their journeys in rosslare/wexford town at 7.40pm, 8.40pm and 21.10pm stored overnight? Presumably they are the same sets that depart rosslare/gorey at 5.35am, 5.50am and 7.20am the following morning?

3. Are platforms 2 at Enniscorthy and Gorey ever used? If so, when?

4. It takes 1 hour to get from Connolly to Greystones on these services, the DART takes the same length of time... surely there are time savings to be made here, it's unacceptable that an intercity train making 4 stops is not faster than a DART making 18 stops. Surely there is a solution to this?
