Ya Newmarket-On-Fergus(village and area) would have a bigger population than Craughwell and Ardrahan combined(Ardrahan is tiny, waste of money opening a station there) but the railway line does'nt go anywhere near the village and with Sixmilebridge re-opening thats only 10 mins drive away from Newmarket. Sixmilebridge station re-opening will be well handy.
I grew up in Newmarket and nobody has any interest in re-opening a station on the line in Newmarket. The only person who brings this up is the councillor going on about it above. Ennis or Sixmilebridge are not that far away to catch the train there
