I`d say the Cabin in Carrick will be come a gate box and who ever is on duty will open the waiting room and toliets .
If its removed as a Block Post , all turnouts will be removed ...

Considering tipp town station is being CTC upgraded , and 2 level crossings east of tipp town were recently automated in the last month...
you would they would keep Carrick open , this is a regrettable decision ....

Have an inkling it may be Bansha and Cappagh LCs but haven't been on the westerly part of the line for a few months.

Interesting, I thought there was only one automated crossing on this line (at Ballindine near Carrick on Suir) or perhaps two, if you include Newrath (shared with the Waterford/Kilkenny line).

Could there be a confusion with Grange on the main line at MP 104 or thereabouts? This used to be an AHB crossing but was converted to CCTV-monitored 4-barrier and incorporated into the Limerick Junction resignalling a couple of years ago.

Indeed Grange is on the mainline as opposed to the Waterford one.
