Should Connolly be the terminating station for Rosslare services?

Sorry Keith all I am saying is because the train "double-jobs" at a busy peak hour time on the maynooth both to there and back its carrying alot more passengers than if it was to run to and from connolly.

I do agree with you keith that it the evening gorey and rosslare services are busy services but is taken ie putting on 4 carriage 29000 sets to show me that when that happens it looks like a very crammed service and that they should be six-car at all times.

I know ThomasJ but Aaahhhh - Only another year until this will be addressed for Rosslare passengers. I think knowing to the fact that IE are short of Commuter Railcars and are using Rosslare services to Maynooth to also cover the Rosslare line but the sooner the new 22000 trains come on the better for all........

But keith Rosslare trains opeated on the Maynooth as mk2s before the 29ks even arrived. The Rosslare train has benefitted both dundalk and maynooth passengers for over 5 years.

Although the 2700s the 2800s and the 29ks should have never gone on the Rosslare line, I believed that since they first put the 2700s on the Rosslare train. But I still do believe that if you can stretch your limited reources a bit do so, and the 06.00 rosslare to sligo proves that?

Im from New York but I know its been over 5yrs since the introduction of the 2700 trains. I moved to Wexford-Gorey 8yrs ago, I can remember when the 2700's were introduced back in April of 2004 But I'm interested in this line I dont know why I think it needs help regarding the above conversations. Anyway I'm going to look into that.
Thanks for replys

Off Topic but is there anyway I could get a timetable for Rosslare to Dublin from 2005,2004 and backwards
