skinner75 Posted February 15 Author Share Posted February 15 One thing I could see possibly being an issue is the pathing of extra freight services over the single track section to Tullamore. Maybe this would be an issue, or maybe not 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe this would be an issue, or maybe not I know that a lot are doubtful that mass scale progress will happen on our railways as has been the case for many the years but with all this climate change stuff i would not be surprised if things such as double tracking sections to Tullamore are on the horizon. one thing that definitely is in the horizon though is someone saying that this wont happen for 100 years 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
