It’s now permanent — running every weekday at 6:50 AM and locked in for 2027. A huge win for commuters after soaring popularity and official approval from the National Transport Authority. Meanwhile, Galway’s Ceannt Station is transforming: new platforms, entrances, restrooms, and ticket machines are live on the south side, while the north side and Platform One are temporarily closed for upgrades — with new shops on the way. Half the station is now back in action, part of a major push to modernize and streamline rail travel for everyone.
