[article] Proposal to bring train journey times between cities below two hours

Cork to Mallow already happens in 23 minutes without any real intervention, and Mallow to Limerick Junction is generally not much over the half-hour as long as it doesn't stop in Charleville. I suspect the timetables may be padded.

The main issue with Dublin to Cork in anything less than 2h35m is platform capacity at Cork.
