Hi,
Thanks for posting. Your situation is slightly novel with the combination of a non-reservable station and a travel pass. However, it is by no means unique and your situation should be catered for. I'll make some further enquiries.
It is possible to turn up speculatively without a reservation. However, if you really want to reserve, you can for €3*. You would still need to get a travel pass ticket from the ticket office as usual.

Potentially, you could book from "before" Longford, but someone would need to collect that reservation from a suitable station - you can no longer have tickets posted out to you. However, I'm not certain if it needs to be collected as its only the reservation, not the actual ticket.

And when I reserve a seat do I just get a seat number and would there be much walking involved?

You can select whichever available seat you want at booking time.

Also what would the space on the particular trains on these schedules be like? I remember leg room used to leave a bit to be desired.
I assume its all layed out like they used to be, as in two seats facing two more or is there any single seats at all?

Its mostly a foursome around a table or two seats together airplane style. However, at the wheelchair space there are 3 seats and a wheelchair space around a smaller table, so this is often the location with the most legroom, although that depends on whether there is someone there with a wheelchair, pram, etc.
* A transaction charge of €2 applies. A further credit card charge of €1 applies (Laser is free, i.e. only the transaction charge of €2). Certain changes are happening to the reservation system over the next few days / weeks.
