Wexford to Enniscorthy by Iarnród Éireann, March 2017
The railway north of Wexford opened in 1872. It is particularly picturesque as it follows the Slaney, one of Ireland’s notable salmon rivers, as far as Enniscorthy. There are tidal reed beds which are home to wildfowl and other interesting wild life (see 03:52). South of Wexford O’ Hanrahan Station trains trundle at Health & Safety speed along the quay on a line built for goods traffic that no longer passes through this once-busy little port. The track is “Irish Gauge” 1,600mm/5’3”. Irish railway engineers took the gauge with them to Australia.
The line is part of the Dublin-Rosslare Europort route, but the future of this section between Gorey and Rosslare is in doubt due to declining passenger numbers. Ireland’s road-centric and Dublin-oriented transport policies may be partly to blame. There are more Irish votes in a new motorway than a useable train service. Commuter rail services between Dublin and Gorey (now effectively a suburb of Dublin) are considered more important than services further south. There are just five trains a day southbound and (curiously) four northbound on the Gorey-Rossalare section. New signalling in 2008 also saw the removal of some passing places on the mostly single track line, thereby reducing timetabling possibilities for an enhanced service. For longer than anyone can remember, the 17:55 train from Rosslare harbour is scheduled to depart five minutes BEFORE the incoming ferry is due to arrive, a truly Irish version of integrated transport. (Iarnród Éireann timetablers blame this on the needs of Dublin DART trains 175km to the north).
This railway should be a valuable asset for the people of the Sunny South East and could be developed for tourism, but it is in danger of being lost.

Scenic Train Rides Across Irish Countryside on Irish Rail
During my 2 week visit to Ireland, we took Irish Rail from Dublin to Cork, Cork to Killarney, and Killarney to Galway. Along the way, we saw the beautiful (green) Irish countryside. Irish Rail is a great way to get around Ireland and to see its rural areas. Very enjoyable!

Maybe Quaint Is Cute In Ireland? - Episode 2, March 25th - Wexford to Bray
It begins! To The Trains! Vicki and Geoff start their Irish travels at Rosslare, and head up the picturesque east coast to Bray - taking in the walking-pace Wexford stretch and TV’s Ballykissangel country, before a nifty switchback for today’s Awkward Station, Kilcoole. The sun is shining, the sea is blue - and thankfully it’s a little less windy than the ferry …
Vicki and Geoff are travelling to 198 railway stations in Ireland and Northern Ireland!
All The Stations - Ireland sees the duo exploring the length and breadth of the Iarnród Éireann and Northern Ireland Railways networks. Along the way, they'll meet the communities connected to the lines, interview local people and those who work on the railways, to find out about their experiences of travelling by train.
To The Book! The Railway Adventures is published by September Publishing and was released in October 2018. It accompanies the 2017 'All The Stations' adventure, when we travelled to all 2,563 railway stations in Great Britain. Available here:
