Rail Station for Croke Park

A station can be provided at very little cost under the stand at the canal end. It was part of the design of the stadium. there would be no need to buy land. The current bridges over the canal can be utilised to give people access from the city side of the canal, as is the case in accessing some of the stands.

All that needs to be done is build the platforms in the space provided.

Also the station would serve as a local station as part of the new upgraded dart service to Maynooth. The station would not be for stadium use only.

Drumcondra would become a commuter station with metro connections. Croke Park a DART station (another metro in effect).
