OK, I see. Thanks for that.
That said, Naas has a far bigger population than Maynooth, which may yet get DART - I hope so for them.
The problem is this large population is now CAR-bound.
I guess it's still too much to expect Planners in Ireland to actually plan (i.e. do some forward thinking); our "Planners" are deployed to resolving issues that should've/could've been PLANNED, but were not, though they were there for all to see.
First, we, the public, are meant to suffer (AND pay) for 20 years.
THEN, maybe, we get something.
If Naas/Newbridge had had some kind of a reliable commuter service since they first began to boom 15 years ago, maybe the people there would by now be Train Travelers, instead of road-hoggers.
It's hard to unlearn bad habits.
