The original station in Glasnevin is the only site and it is the tennis court, the Des Kelly side looks promising to the untrained eye but when I did a site visit all kinds of serious issues cropped up. Put simply its impossible based on established signaling practice and rules

There are conflicting reports about this Prospect station, its not on any IE map nor do I have a costing for it in the DRP numbers, its wishful thinking
