Not really though, is it?
For one thing, the Sligo line already serves a good portion of the area.
Also, the population would be lower than on a line that ran from Kent Station through Cork City Centre onto UCC (13,000 students) and CIT (17,000 students) to Ballincollig, but that's not even being considered for a tramway.
The line only makes sense if it connects up Dublin Airport and Swords, but if there's a cheaper way of doing that.
