There are various positives that would roll out of re-opening Athenry to Claremorris including reduced mileage for several freight flows, more efficient use of crews and rolling stock, capacity for further expansion, strenthening of the economics of the existing WRC and the establishment of Tuam to Galway passenger services.

While I appreciate some would dismiss such benefits and oppose railway development much beyond the GDA there is a degree of logic to the proposal nevertheless.
