We are currently in talks with three companies concerning the possibility of operating services on the Rosslare to Waterford railway line.

A list of options has been communicated to the interested companies. Obviously the rolling stock has to meet current safety standards and be cost-efficient to operate.

We are also working to establish a community rail partnership (CRP) and have had meetings with Iarnród Éireann. This partnership will initially focus on the Co. Wexford section of the Rosslare Europort to Dublin Connolly line (i.e. Rosslare Europort & Strand stations, Wexford O’Hanrahan, Enniscorthy & Gorey). To date key issues raised include publicity for the line, extra trains and for the onboard catering service to be also provided between Wexford and Rosslare. Feedback and suggestions from users are welcome and may be communicated with Facebook.

While the internet will be our main way of providing updates we are conscious this medium does not reach everyone and hoping to introduce at least one hard copy information channel too.

We are progressing matters as quickly as possible.

Repair work on the line is currently ongoing as prescribed by the National Transport Authority (NTA) in their contract with Iarnród Éireann.
