The approach to Waterford is taken at a ridiculously slow pace, several minutes could be clawed back there

It has improved a lot it starts to slow down as it passes the main yard as it used to slow before the old N9 level crossing.
The signals in Athy need to be improved a lot as it takes ages for them to change.
18:05 ex Waterford due to arrive Athy at 19:28 and depart at 19:34
18:40 ex Dublin due to arrive Athy at 19:33 and depart at 19:33
The 18:05 stops outside the station for a few mins when the 18:40 is no where near the station.
The 18:40 always stooped the other side of the station for 5mins if not 10mins. After it arrives it departs and the 18:05 is still there for a further 5mins waiting for signals to change.
18:05 ex Waterford due to arrive Athy at 19:28 and depart at 19:45 at the earliest.
18:40 ex Dublin due to arrive Athy at 19:38 and depart at 19:39.
It's a joke at this stage.
