Irish Rail plan still to have the DART connect with the airport. There Rail systems in Irelnad by 2030 was released today. Trains will operate from Cork,Belfast,Galway direct to Dublin Airport as they plan to electrify the rail lines and services can operaete through DART undergound. Although these direct services to Airport will not happen until 2025-2030. Funding is a problem and there would need to be new EMU for this to happen and seen as the current IC tran fleet is very new. The Dart link up from clongriffin is still planned to happen in a few years.

If the direct services to regional cities happen it will be great for airprot acess and services to Cork would take 2h and Galway 1h45. TBH its a plan which may not happen.
