I was wondering if anyone had heard what the situation is regarding Waterford station?

There are rumours that it is being converted into a one platform terminus with all bar one of the running lines through the station being ripped out along with all the signalling.

They seem incredible - no other major city terminus has only one platform - but I am concerned that given IE's peculiar attitude to railway operations that they are using the rockfall as a pretext for a substantial downgrade of passenger rail services in the South East.

Anyone have any ideas?
