Connections with Park West and stations beyond Newbridge

[Mark Gleeson]

There are also 17:29 and 18:03 departures from Park West to Newbridge

For a station with its level of use the service offered is actually not bad

Must have missed that.

Park West 17:29 or 18:03 - Newbridge 18:09 or 18:33.
Newbridge 18:45 - Portlaoise 19:13.

Thanks!

The new timetable also includes several late evening all stops Heuston Portlaoise as well. It is probably the biggest improvement in commuter services out of Heuston since the launch of the Arrow service back in 1995. Its not costing anything really since its using all those empty trains that were shuttling around.

Ballybrophy is just too far out so will never see a good service, 66 miles out is really not going to generate sufficient demand

The new timetable is a classic three tier arrangement, short services from Newbridge at peak, hourly all stops to Portlaoise and long distance

New timetable is now on the Journey Planner.

Some odd movements which look like a shuttle between Portlaoise - Portarlington and Portlaoise-Kildare. And some anomalies are well. May not be loaded completely.

Actually is working correctly

Train A leaves 11:20 all stops to Portlaoise

Train B leaves 11:25, overtakes train A, pulls in at Portarlington, train A becomes a valid connection for train B.

Welcome to the world of 4 track railways, first time we have ever had this
