Battery-Operated Carriages to Kildare town and Enfield

While the deployment of battery operated carriages on the DART and Northern Commuter Route is a very welcome step, the provision of similar capacity to Kildare on the Limerick line and to Enfield on the Sligo line would provide much needed capacity and frequency on these key rail arteries of the greater Dublin area. A large percentage of the Kildare workforce commute to and from Dublin on a daily basis and the line is used by hundreds of students commuting to and from Maynooth University, therefore this route should also be prioritised.
