That train is now scheduled for 2028. It doesn't help that for some reason the LimerickJ-Waterford service is held no less than nine minutes after the Dublin, Cork and Limerick services leave LJ (1850 dep). Is there any scope to narrow that gap now that all this resignalling work has been done?

On the timetables, intermediate timings tend to be tight, with all the make up time loaded towards the end of a journey. This results in arrivals at intermediate stations being frequently late. I presume the long connection time is to guarantee the connection. However, they could restate things such that 'the Waterford train will depart at X, but will always wait for the Cork-Dublin-Cork trains, assuming it is less than Y minutes late.' This would need to take into account the crossing times with Waterford-LJ trains.
