[article] Turf War Over Broadstone

Technicially there's nothing to stop heavy rail using it for the Navan/Maynooth/Pace line till the interconnector is open then it being recommissioned for light rail.

In that case Kildare trains could be brought straight into Connolly and beyond while Navan/Maynooth/Pace trains could either go to Docklands or Broadstone with Luas connections.

Too many cooks though... still...

Hmm... meanwhile the costs of rehabilitating Broadstone for heavy rail are tacked onto the cost of reopening to Navan, which doesn't need it.
