Services
Connolly has seven platforms; four terminal (1-4) for trains from the north, and three through - the former Amiens St Jctn station - (5-7), for trains from the south.
There are three Intercity routes served:
- The Enterprise service to Belfast (intermediate stops, Drogheda, Dundalk, Newry, Portadown)
- Sligo Mac Diarmada (some main stops, Maynooth, Mullingar, Longford)
- Rosslare Europort, via Pearse Station and the "loop line" bridge (selected stops, Arklow, Gorey, Wexford). The 16:37 departure from Connolly to Rosslare Europort offers a connection to ferries for Wales and France.
Suburban services run on the same routes, as far as Drogheda, Dundalk, Maynooth and Gorey or Enniscorthy. DART uses platforms equipped with overhead wires (Platforms 5, 6, and 7). Terminal platform 4 is also electrified, although electric trains rarely use it.

Famous quotes containing the word services:
“We now in the United States have more security guards for the rich than we have police services for the poor districts. If you’re looking for personal security, far better to move to the suburbs than to pay taxes in New York.”
—John Kenneth Galbraith (b. 1908)
“Men will say that in supporting their wives, in furnishing them with houses and food and clothes, they are giving the women as much money as they could ever hope to earn by any other profession. I grant it; but between the independent wage-earner and the one who is given his keep for his services is the difference between the free-born and the chattel.”
—Elizabeth M. Gilmer (1861–1951)
“A good marriage ... is a sweet association in life: full of constancy, trust, and an infinite number of useful and solid services and mutual obligations.”
—Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
