But there are trains such as the 0505 from Westport, 0515 from Athlone, 0535 from Limerick and the 0735 for Portlaoise that only stop at Hazelhatch. Should there not use the fast line rather than be slowed unnecessarily by the speed limit? Of course only usin gone platform makes life easier for both the passengers and the staff.
