Cement Silo Kent Station Demolition

[Newtoncork]

End of an era. I know it was just a matter of time, but there's no mention of how many trucks were required to replace the cement trains. I remember seeing 171 and 177 idling in Mallow with the bubbles. Must have been about 2003. 

I wonder what are the realistic chances of freight ever returning to Cork?
