    Always good seeing rail improvements no mater how small or large 👍🏻 Next it should be continued all the way to Youghal 😊🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

    I assume that increasing passenger numbers have brought this about. Splendid. Nothing is cheap and the extra signalling will be a major component . Thank goodness 1.5 times the existing width of the formation is in good order and slewing the existing line manageable. Population increase in last 5 years at Midleton would be interesting.

    If they don't plan on reopening the Youghal line , why didn't they build a new station in Midleton , if the trains are eventually running every 10 minutes the traffic on the mill road will be a disaster. The barrier will be down more time than it will be up.

      Good point. It would also negate the need for a new bridge over the river. Plenty of waste land adjacent to the line on the cork side of the bridge and crossing

    WOW didn't think the route was that busy 🤷🏻‍♂️ big 🤑🤑 investment so wondering how they'll make into 2 track.... buy land at either side of track 🤔 looking forward to more updates

      Tunnel in the woods video - is of Kilpatrick Tunnel - Innishannon. Dont want to give the location in the actual video comments as I was technically trespassing , and had the landowner pull me up on a previous video of same area before . If you don't know how to get to it , email or DM me and I'll give you detailed directions . No problem visiting , just the land owner doesn't like his property being shown on YT.

    Are there going to be new stations placed at or near the larger industrial sites ?

      I'll try , but I tend not to fly near the city . Too many Karen's just waiting to cause a ruckus

      @dronehawk it would be savage to do a time-lapse from somwhere if you could get a good safe spot and afford to leave a camera there for a year

    Great update ... thanks. So shortly after reopening, is this the result of passenger demand or capacity issues?
    Still hoping for some positive railway developments to the southwest of the city.

      Both. Needed to increase frequency of trains to midelton

      Making it double track the whole way to increase train frequency
