Sligo trains have used that route to depart on a regular basis in recent years, was daily for a while. It does avoid Drumcondra which avoids placing a non stop train passing through a possibly full platform at Drumcondra. Also means a train can be placed waiting in Drumcondra to collect fans without delaying other services
