the whole Waterford timetable is #rseways (no commuter ex Carlow, no commuter ex Clonmel, last towards Dublin too early) but the reality is that the station is in an awkward location where most of the city has to cross the Suir to get at it.
There is a morning 6.25 from Carlow with the only problem being no train from Carlow between 09.00-12.15 other wise its mainly 1 or 2 hours gaps which is fairly good.

I can't see much demand for a late service between Waterford-Heuston at night. Since the 16.50 started I have noticed an affect on the 18.20 passenger numbers which were never great anyway. If it was moved to 19.30 it would be better and would have a slightly quicker journey time which is always a +.

What should be on the top of IE list is to have one of the current 16.35,17.35 or 18.35) / new service only serving Carlow,Waterford and mabye Athy which would realy help.
