Nenagh railway station 2.54

Nenagh railway station serves the town of Nenagh in County Tipperary, Ireland.The station opened on 5 October 1863 and is on the Limerick-Ballybrophy railway line between Castleconnell railway station and Cloughjordan railway station. Passengers can connect at Ballybrophy to trains heading northeast to Dublin or southwest to Cork or Tralee.The buildings consist of a two-storey station house with a platform canopy supported on cast iron columns, a goods shed and a disused cast iron footbridge. The station is staffed and has a car park and sheltered bicycle parking.The railway line is lightly used due to low passenger numbers. Lack of upkeep means the line is restricted to speeds of 40 kilometres per hour (25 miles per hour) and the existing trains are poorly timetabled for commuters. A committee (the Nenagh Rail Partnership) working in conjunction with Irish Railway News, had a meeting with Iarnród Éireann on 1 September 2005 to present the results of a traffic study funded by Nenagh Town Council and North Tipperary County Council, and to seek a morning and evening service between Nenagh and Limerick which would increase commuter traffic. Iarnród Éireann agreed to delay an afternoon service from the December 2005 timetable.
