Hi..again

There is a lady who live about 5 mins drive from Ballybrophy. She works for Irish Rail in the offices at Heuston Station. She uses Ballybrophy station everyday, either parking there or being dropped off.

She has told some other regular commuters that Irish Rail are looking to extend the existing car park. The area beside the car park is currently used as a storage area for different grades of hard core (used when they were doing up the tracks a few years ago). If they do decide to extend the car park she says that paid parking will be introduced (not sure if that is her opinion or she is just repeating what she has heard at work).

Has anyone heard of this?

Ballybrophy is still very busy, people parking on the approach road too. Majority of people are commuters who used to catch the train from Templemore (they are making a big saving on price of ticket & currently zero parking charges).

Thanks!
