2200DMU: The 25 through Lavistown is obviously "temporary", but as is often the case it take quite a while before an old turnout or crossover is replaced. The universal practice on Irish Rail is to place a warning sign about 1.25 miles in advance of a TSR. This is adequate, especially as the weekly circular also notifies TSRs.

Its being there for well over a year and a half if not longer.
Since the Points Incident with the 15.05 (mark 3) Heuston-Waterford a few years back they have reduced speed and then when the 2200 started there was problems with them at the junction so it was reduced further and now its 25mph.
Same at Cherryville. Trains take the junction at 20mph, was much faster before. This is still after work was done on the junction.
