Rail Services and Related Transport Matters: Statements.

 

This takes me to the question of the western corridor and the rail connection at Athenry. There is concern that removing this link, which is like a points system between the lines to Galway and Mayo, will end any prospect of reopening that line. That would be a great pity indeed. Concern has been expressed that the removal of the cross-over at Athenry would end the possibility of a series of other inter-city routes, such as the services between Sligo, Limerick, Cork and Waterford. I hope nothing irreversible will be done here.
