Easter rail disruption for Killarney and Tralee passengers

Killarney and Tralee rail passengers are advised to plan for significant disruptions this Easter weekend due to major engineering works on the Cork line.

Iarnród Éireann has confirmed that as part of the Cork Area Commuter Rail programme, signalling and track laying works will take place on Saturday, April 4 and Easter Sunday, April 5. These works will impact all services travelling between Kerry and Cork Kent Station.
During this period, bus transfers will be in place for the final leg of the journey between Mallow and Cork. Passengers travelling from Tralee and Killarney to Cork, and those returning, will be required to transfer to coaches at Mallow station.
A revised timetable will be in operation across the entire Intercity network from Good Friday,  April3,  through to Easter Monday,  April. 6 While the primary impact for Kerry travellers is the Mallow to Cork transfer, Irish Rail is urging all customers to check the official journey planner or the Iarnród Éireann app before heading to the station.
Pre-booking for Intercity travel is strongly advised during the holiday period to ensure capacity on the replacement bus services.
