So, getting back to the original topic...

Grand Canal Dock is now using platform 1. Platform 2 has a buffer and only connects in a northerly direction. This is all that's needed to facilitate terminating trains from Kildare/Maynooth/Drogheda. Is that the final planned state for the platform?

Is the resignalling work finished? I noticed yesterday the 16:44 to Drogheda was almost on time despite the 16:37 to Maynooth being several minutes late ahead of it, and seemed to arrive much closer behind the Maynooth train than it has in the past. Is that the result of improved signalling?

Will GCD only be used to terminate Kildare trains, or will Maynooth and Drogheda trains also use it?

Will there be adequate notice of new timetables? As mentioned already, it could have a significant impact on people renewing annual tickets.
