Good evening:

Yes due to the pandemic, the Republic of Ireland is in a Level 5 lockdown, trains operate at present to a modified Saturday timetable and at 25% capacity. I think services return to a normal weekday service from next Tuesday, 4th of May, the 3rd is a public holiday. From the following Monday public transport is back to 50% capacity. The timetables have changed regularly over the last 14 months, so they have not updated the public timetables.

Freight consist of three up and down Tara Mine mineral services from Navan to Dublin Port. The line from Drogheda to Navan is a freight only line. Container trains operate from Ballina to Dublin Port. Timber trains operate from Westport to Waterford. I think that is all of the freight at present.

We have had a multitude of proposals and great ideas over the last 30 years. The big schemes at present are:

New Central Control Center to be built at Heuston. [www.irishrail.ie]
41 new intermediate 22000 railcars are due early in 2022. Thesis will strengthen existing train sets.
Planning is underway for a significant upgrade and extension of the DART service - similar to the S-Bahn network in German cities.

Hope that is of some help. If new timetable appear I will post them here.

Pictures here!
