[Car Pool] Best middle way for carpooling from Carlow

Anshua

Hi All, thank you for reading this and providing your opinion. I will be moving
Work to Parkwest Business Campus
Nangor Road,
Dublin 12. My understanding is the train station near here is Parkwest cherry orchard stop( pls correct me if this is not correct). A friend is starting another job in dublin and his nearest station is Heuston. We want to car pool. Our plan is to carpool from Carlow and park in red cow station. He will take a train from redcow going to heuston and I will take my train going to Parkwest. My question is, is there a train from Red Cow to parkwest orchard? Is there a middle station (in between heuston and Parkwest) that we can use? I will appreciate any opinion as we are both not familiar with Dublin and commuting.

The Carlow train doesn't stop at Parkwest/Cherry Orchard (except the 21:35 service) so you either change at Newbridge or Adamstown depending on the time (check IR's journey planner). The Luas tram only goes into the city centre and takes about 20 mins from Red Cow. As far as I can see there's no easy way to get from the N7 to ParkWest by public transport.

Think thats doable. the luas from the red cow will take both of you close to where you want to go,

you'll only have to go one stop(can't think of the name atm) & then either walk or take a bus up the Nangor road.

There is also a private shuttle bus for park west that runs this way.

Think google maps would set your mind at ease

Best of luck with your new job
