[Article] Cullen signs off on Ennis Athenry

What existing freight travels Limerick-Waterford at the moment? When Ennis-Athenry is open what existing freight will use the route? When Tuam-Athenry is opened what potential freight will use the route

I presume the answer to all three questions is nothing, but the freight potential is being touted as a justification in most of the media articles.

Only in about 15 years if Tuam-Claremorris gets reopened will the line see freight, but in 15 years whatever freight is currently on the tracks will probably be gone anyway.
