Stephen M - there are some "counterflow" flights so it's quite feasible: AA142 and VS26 for example leave JFK in the morning about 8 and arrive at Heathrow about 8pm - they are less popular because you "lose" that day.

As for Gorey etc - I suppose the real mistake was not so much electrification of Greystones so much as the failure to provide a second track - and moving that track further inland. But that would have been harder for Lowry to sneak through so we got the cheapass solution.

Would Waterford (base) -Wexford - Dublin service fix the Gorey situation without the need for a Gorey base?
