Mark, 6:20 ish tonight? On the radio or what? When I was a kid, I used to pass The Point on a regular basis to go to the UCI cinema long before Dun Laoghaire got the IMC. I used to pass a level crossing wondering what it was used for. This was before I saw Google Maps two or three years ago. To my surprise The Point, Docklands, and Connolly are all connected to the stretch of track which leads to the Phoenix Park Tunnel and on to Heuston Station with all its branches. The Luas link from Heuston to Connolly is being extended to the Docklands Station and then on to the Point. Fair enough, it passes central locations such as Jervis, O'Connell Street, Busaras and Connolly. The pathetic thing is, there is already infrastructure connecting The Point, Docklands and Connolly to Heuston.
