How far could the line be reinstated? Could only walk as far as the rowing club from the Marina side and then seemed blocked off. On the journey to Rochestown the two bridges, (Mahon Point and South Ring) would need extensive work. Didn't get any further than that.
There's still a stretch of line now as a pathway along Carrigaline to Crosshaven from memory. Carrigaline is now one of most heavily populated areas in cork city.
Some streches seemed wide enough to carry two lines but certainly at Blackrock Station its down to sinlge line. Guess you could still work with that.
Any thoughts on whether it would suit Tram/ Heavy Rail or the new Tram Buses that BE are playing around with.
