I guess the 1740 arrival in Waterford is the same train that returns to Heuston at 1825 and while a 6-car certainly could be split (with one set continuing to Rosslare) perhaps it would create problems the following morning at Heuston by only being a 3-car.

Haven't travelled on the 1505 Dublin to Waterford since it became 22000 operated so am unaware if it's a 3 car or 6 car.

I think the ideal solution is to run the set already based overnight at Rosslare Europort all the way through to Galway. It would be much more efficient than the current fragmented service where Rosslare-Waterford, Waterford-Limerick and Limerick-Ennis are effectively stand-alone services.
