Cork Kent - Dublin
Heuston. In 2015, a morning service started which ran non-stop from Cork-Dublin. This service departs Cork Kent at 06:15 AM and arrives at Dublin Heuston in 2 hours 15 minutes, at 08:30 AM. Since then, in an extra service from Cork to Dublin than Dublin to Cork the 21:00 train from Dublin is formed of a 3+4 car class 22000 train which splits in Cork to operate 2 services to Dublin. In 2016 Irish rail brought the 2 Mk4 sets that were out of service back into service which freed up some ICR sets.

thus provide faster services to compete with the M8 motorway. Ultimately it is intended for trains to run non-stop from Cork to Dublin in two hours or less. This has resulted in major disruption and cancellations on many weekends and speed restrictions affecting the punctuality of trains. The following is a summary of the main works involved:
2616:
Although electrification of the entire line was proposed within Iarnród Éireann's 2030 Rail
Network Strategy Review between 2020 and 2025, this did not occur. The company's Strategy 2027 only mentions electrification of the line as a "first phase of InterCity electrification" without giving any date.
2547:
This involved increasing the number of tracks from 2 to 4 between Cherry
Orchard & Hazelhatch. It also included The renewing of the two old tracks. There is now a Down Fast, Down Slow, Up Slow & Up Fast lines. This section was cleared for 160 km/h (100 mph) in November 2010. Project
2587:
In
September 2011, Iarnród Éireann received government funding of €1 million to continue the improvements on the Dublin – Portarlington section of this line later in 2011. In September 2011, Iarnród Éireann announced a €175 million major investment programme, designed to further accelerate upgrading
2607:
In 2015 further upgrade plans were announced. Iarnród Éireann chief executive David Franks outlined how ballast was to be renewed between
Hazelhatch and Kildare, which was to allow 160 km/h (100 mph) running on the 80 km (50 mi) long stretch. Further upgrades such as the removal
2554:
Previously there was a 40 km/h (25 mph) speed limit through
Limerick Junction. In 2011 the junction was resignallised, and new track laid. It also included the automation of Emly level-crossing gates where there was a limit of 130 km/h (81 mph) in a 160 km/h (100 mph)
2532:
The line has been progressively upgraded from the late 2000s onward, with work focusing on the removal of speed restrictions, and separation of main line traffic from commuter trains near Dublin. The objective is to increase the sections of line capable of 160 km/h (99 mph) operation and
2523:
There are 14 daily services between Dublin
Heuston - Cork Kent (Monday - Saturday) Departing hourly on the hour. There are 15 daily services between Cork Kent - Dublin Heuston (Monday - Friday) Departing hourly at 25-past-the-hour and 14 daily on Saturday. On Sundays there are 10 services between
2602:
This long section of line formerly had a maximum speed of 145 km/h (90 mph), with slightly lower limits in spots. The majority of this section had works to the trackbed & Relaying to increase the speed to 160 km/h (100 mph). There was also an elimination of level crossings
2582:
Other works now completed have been: Renewal of Track layout
Sallins (2009); Renewal of Points & provision of faster turnouts, Cherryville (2010); Portarlington Rebuilding to increase line speed here from 50 km/h (30 mph) to 130 km/h (80 mph) (2008), Renewal of Signalling
2561:
All relaying on the Dublin/Cork line in the future will involve using the 60 kg rail. It is a much heavier rail giving a smoother ride in trains. The section between
Portarlington and Portlaoise has been relayed with the 60 kg rail. Most of this section is now cleared for 160 km/h
2568:
Rehabilitation works have been undertaken on some existing sections of track. This included excavation, renewing drainage, installing a geo-textile membrane, replacing broken sleepers and renewing side worn rails. This was carried out on the 40 km (25 mi) section between
Newbridge and
2595:
In this section, in particular around the Curragh, there was much curvature in the line, resulting in an 130 km/h (80 mph) limit in these areas. This project has seen the Railway realigned through these areas to remove the curves & increase the speed limit to 160 km/h
2575:
Where the line passes through Lisduff County Tipperary there is the quarry used for ballast for the railway. There are railway sidings leading off the main line into it which were in poor condition and were replaced in early 2012, following a brief line
2505:
on 4 August 1846. The company received permission to extend the line towards Cork and Limerick in 1845, reaching the northern Cork suburbs at a temporary terminus in 1847, and would later reach the city centre following the completion of the
2540:
The railway crosses the Awbeg river near Charleville, County Cork. By the late 2000s this bridge in dire need of renewal, with a speed restriction of 40 km/h (25 mph). The bridge was replaced in 2011 at a cost of €1 million
2510:
in 1855. Amalgamations between the GS&WR and other smaller railway companies in the south led to the line gaining connections to other population centres. A branch from Portarlington to Athlone was built to connect with the
2562:(100 mph). 60 kg rail is being laid on many other smaller sections on the line and this is continuing. Relaying commenced in 2011, starting from Sallins and working back towards Hazelhatch and Celbridge.
