Heuston, Connolly and the DART

Dublin has two long-distance stations. From Heuston, in the west, next to the Guinness Storehouse, Irish Rail trains leave for Kilkenny (an hour and a half to an hour and three-quarters) and Galway (about two and a quarter hours); you get there on the red Luas line. The DART, the coastal train, passes through Connolly, Tara Street and Pearse: north to Howth and Malahide, south as far as Bray. The DART is covered by the Leap Visitor.
