early train to Cork has been called for by everone of the still existing user groups on the line and it also is in line with the notion of a proper two hourly/every hour rail system.
we ahve been banging heads about the same situation on the Enterprise and we have had a lot of support from Cross Border Bodies as well as IBEC, Unions, Chambers of Commerce. I would imagine it being some sort of election demand too from various parties.
Im my own opinion, the usual trodden out nonesense from IE regarding lack of capacity/paths/demand are solvable, and dont take a bucket of money to do so.
There really ought to be one arrival from Dublin to Galway/Limerick/Cork/Belfast between 8 and 9 am. Saying that the current patterens are a block is no excuse. Irish Rail had fronted this piecemeal timetable adjustment in the last year or so by vaguely speaking about a year-zero option. That is what is needed. This toe in the water stuff is no solution at all.
