The problem with running non-stop from Maynooth to Connolly is you can only go fast until you come up behind a commuter train as there are only two sets of tracks.

Maynooth to Pearse typically takes 50 minutes these days (if things are running on time). I'm sure it was 45 mins a few years ago.

Drogheda to Pearse generally takes 1hr 10mins. When I moved to Drogheda, most trains did it in an hour.

I would hope that electrification would help bring journey times down.
