IR grew freight traffic in 2011 by 13.6% over 2010.

Ballina-Dublin Port and West of Ireland-Waterford.

I'm thinking particularly of Westport (18:30) and Waterford (18:35). These scarcely give time for someone to get across Dublin to Heuston if they finish work at half five.

I can partially understand with Westport (low volume route, long journey time), but in the case of Waterford, the 18:35 could probably make it back to Dublin that evening, meaning another set could be sent down to operate services the following morning.
I think it would be great if they extended the 20.05 Heuston-Carlow to Waterford but then there would be no 21.25 from Carlow to Heuston.
