Improvements to Sligo - Dublin train services coming down the tracks

Improvements to Sligo - Dublin train services coming down the tracks

Mixed results are expected for Sligo in the All Ireland Strategic Rail Review.

The long-awaited review, which is to be published tomorrow, will have no new lines from Sligo, including the much debated Collooney to Claremorris and Sligo to Galway lines.

Improvements will be made to the current Sligo to Dublin Connolly services however, with double-tracks being laid between Mullingar and Maynooth to speed the journey up.

Extra carriages will also be added to Sligo services to allow more people to travel.

Local Independent Councillor, Marie Casserly, says that these changes will improve the existing service.
