How much difficulty would there be in turning this into a through track so that DARTS could use it when being overtaken? From what I remember, there was the station building and a rail overbridge beyond it. Is there any realistic potential for connecting it through?
Its possible, but practical is another matter. The council is / was considering building a promenade over the railway. However, the Rosslare train would need to be right behind the DART to pass is here. Possibly more sensible would be triple tracking Merrion Gates - Blackrock Tunnel. but I think thats for the infrastructure section.
