Actually I refuse to believe that.. could be earlier, you just don't know with IR! Anyone's guess is as good as mine.

As far as I understand it the website timetable never holds a full years service, so periodically the expiry date moves forward

A logical date for a new timetable would be September with the return of schools and third level, the Summer is traditionally quiet

Don't expect major changes, only the Rosslare line is in line for a major change

Do we have a rough idea on what changes to expect on the Rosslare line?

Will these 'changes' be improvements or reductions?

The official line is no service reductions but I don't believe it

Rosslare should see more services

I expect time reductions, New trains, 100% Reliability, Dun Laoghaire station taken off stopping station for InterCity Rosslare. Extra 2 services each way to Wexford, Rosslare trains go no further than Connolly & start at Connolly. New timetable not the 13.35 or 18.35 but something new (i.e) 13.10 & 19.10

In fairness KSW, Dun Laoghaire Train Station is serviced by a large number of feeder bus routes such as the 46A not to mention, being next to a Ferry Port. On top of that, it has two large shopping centers, an abundance of clothes stores and it's also a very popular tourist attraction. Therefore, it should be serviced by ALL trains from ALL directions.
