UP
AND RUNNING!
After
21 years of inactivity, the Midleton Railway Station has been
reopened to the public.
The
first train journey on the new Midleton to Cork line took
place on 30 July 2009. The opening of this new commuter route
cost €75,000,000 as part of the Government's Transport
21 programme.
|
The
trains run every 30 minutes at peak times and every hour
at off-peak times
TIMETABLE
|
Expect
the journey to Cork to take 24 minutes. The station has new
‘park and ride’ facilities. A day return ticket
will only cost you €6.50.
Each
commuter train has a capacity for 320 passengers, including
seating for 129 passengers. The current trains have two carriages.
Platforms
have been built to accommodate future expansion to four-carriage
trains. |
