Currently there is only one platform for Cork line trains, the second one was never used anyway, not long enough. The Waterford platform was removed a few years back when they split the Limerick platform into two halves

A new platform on the opposite side is planned I'm told, footbridge and so on included. Will eliminate finally the Limerick Junction delays due to the shortage of platforms and clear up the timetable

Expect Cork line trains to arrive at the same time every second hour with connections to Waterford and Limerick (potentially Galway) It will be very much in the Swiss model of regional trains arrive first, then the long distance arrive followed by a quick change and everyone heads off

Part of the engineering work next week are at Limerick Junc, place is getting a total rebuild which should save several minutes on all service
