Having trains pointing the right way is not one of Irish Rail's strong points. Not a big problem for most people, but a bit of a pain for cyclists and wheelchair users.
You should try the Mullingar / Athlone link next time. You could easily enough do a one-way to Athlone and get back to Dublin the same day by bike. If you get bored, there's also the option of giving up at Mullingar, or any of the other stations between there and Dublin.
