As I live on the Sligo line, the number there always jumps out at me but it is really quite amazing that a line to a town of 20,000 people with no major population centres en-route generates similar trip numbers as the Belfast line.
Presumably Longford commuter is lumped in with this but it does appear to be a pretty good result when you consider it's single line for most of the route, there are no late trains, first trains arrive in Dublin at 10AM Saturday, midday Sunday and the catering service is almost non-existent.
