Nenagh-Dublin Direct Train

Posted by Alan Kelly on March 05, 2012 at 04:27 PM

I have recently announced an overhaul of rail services on the Ballybrophy railway line, including additional early morning train services to Dublin under the new Iarnród Éireann Spring/Summer schedule. This is a fantastic development for those living and commuting in the areas of Nenagh and Roscrea. As the local Minister in the Department of Transport, providing this vital service has been a priority for me.

These new trains mean you'll be in Dublin in 2 hours 20 minutes from Nenagh and there will be no change at Ballybrophy on this service. What this effectively means is that for the first time people from Nenagh have the ability to get to Dublin, on one train, for work or college before 9am.

This takes the number of services on the line to a respectable seven which effectively means more versatility and choice for commuter travel in the local area. It is also great value, with the day return ticket from Nenagh costing only €26.
