It's a pity the budget wouldn't stretch to resurfacing the second platform and putting a pedestrian bridge in at Enfield.
That would give real benefits in reliability for Longford and Maynooth commuters as it would allow easy unscheduled crossings at Enfield. Currently if a train gets delayed, the need to hold a train either at Killucan or Maynooth or reverse a train back out of Enfield to swap platforms.
But they would rather blow the money on putting in shiny new shelters and bins everywhere for no real passenger benefit, because these are more visible.
