An additional journey, operating on Fridays & Saturdays only, has been introduced at 16.00hrs ex Waterford arriving Heuston 17.50hrs.

Intermediate stations served are Carlow, Athy and Kildare. Timings are shown in the Journey Planner and on the in station poster.
Spotted this the other day but didn't post because its only in the JP until early October. Its being operated by 3 coaches which operate part of the 13.15 ex Heuston and return empty at 15.35 to operate another evening service.

I asked IE twice since the 2013 why they don't operate it as a passenger service especially as the 16.50 service was cancelled and carried good numbers on Fridays and Saturdays. Needless to say that would be a terrible idea!

Only reason I can see them operating this 16.00 service is because the 14.50 was changed from 6 to 3 coaches to allow the 13.05 go form 3 to 6 in July and there has being some issues on the 14.50 since.
