[Article] DART airport plan on track as Metro North hits the buffers

As a proposal, it's pretty good, but presumably it would cost quite an amount of money and take some time.

In the shorter term, are there many stations that could be quad tracked through the stations to allow InterCity and Commuter trains to pass DARTs?

I would imagine Clontarf Rd and Howth Junction.

Also, possibly Raheny and Kilbarrack if you moved them from their current location?

I haven't travelled through Clongriffen since it opened. I assume it was only built with 2 lines through?
