Galway Suburban Rail (Irish: Iarnród Bruachbhailteach na Gaillimhe) is a suburban rail service currently operating on the Dublin–Galway line between Galway, Oranmore and Athenry.[1]

Services

[edit]

Commuter services in the Athenry–Galway corridor consist of the following:

Between these routes, there are 14 services in each direction each weekday in this section, with 11 services from Galway and 10 services from Athenry on Sundays.

Future developments

[edit]

Under the Transport 21 plan, service is planned between Tuam and Galway via the closed line to Claremorris. However, funding for this has not been identified and no Railway Order has yet been sought.

Iarnród Éireann are hoping to increase Galway commuter services with service from Galway to Athenry every 15 minutes (this likely includes services to Dublin and Limerick) and the 2nd platform at Oranmore.
