MacDonagh Station
Kilkenny is set to be included as an additional stop on the 07:00 service between Waterford and Dublin.
The current service at that time does not stop in Kilkenny but that's set to change from December 11, according to Minister for Transport Eamon Ryan.
Minister Ryan made the announcement following a query from local Sinn Féin TD Kathleen Funchion, who asked for details of the investments and service improvements that have been made on the Dublin-Waterford train line since 2020.
"A number of new services or amendments to services on the Intercity network have recently been announced," he said.
"These include changes on the Dublin-Waterford service from December 11 this year, which includes a new return mid-morning service between Heuston Station and Carlow on weekdays and the addition of a stop at Kilkenny on the 07:00 service between Waterford and Dublin.
"The train will service Kilkenny at 07:28 and its departure from Waterford will be advanced ten minutes to 06:50, meaning the 09:00 arrival time at Heuston Station will remain unchanged."
