Err, shouldn't this article be at Pearse Station? Admittedly it's a couple of years since I was last in Dublin, but if memory serves, the street outside the station was never renamed from Westland Row. I seem to remember all the station name signs say something like "Staisiun Piarsach/Pearse Station" (apologies for misspellings). -- Arwel 23:56, 8 September 2004 (UTC)
I have reverted the title in the introduction to corresspond with the article title, if people disagree then they can submitt a request to change the title. Djegan 19:20, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

I've just added a image to the article and made things worse rather than better. A couple of things I think would improve things, at least short term.
I believe in the 1960s (and probably before and for some time after) the platform numbering south-west to north-east was Platforms 1 & 2 : terminus platforms. Platform 3 is what is currently the northbound through line and Platform 4 what is currently southbound. Platform 5 was the terminus platform to the north-east, it was generally used by boat trains to Dún Laoghaire. Platform 4 (Only?) was used for both arrivals and departures to Galway and Sligo etc until these went to Connolly. Some of this is my memory and I can't currently cite it. Thankyou.

Dublin Pearse railway station → Pearse railway station – "Pearse railway station" - or more usually simply "Pearse station" are far more common than the present name. Cúchullain t/ c 16:46, 19 December 2018 (UTC) --Relisting. SITH (talk) 17:31, 29 December 2018 (UTC)
I have seen some mentioned, unconfirmed, the station originally had turntable and single platform as per Harcourt Street. The source also mentioned the through lines were 22" or so too low to go over the road and had to be built up and the platforms a the Westland Row end had to be built up (top the platform edge) and if my memory serves me right (very risky) there was quite an incline from Easons up the the plaform edge, and would be fascinated to know if this is still the case, having no reason to go to Pearse much since the rename. Thankyou. Djm-leighpark ( talk) 23:35, 4 April 2019 (UTC)

The precise details of the original 1934 trackwork may be uncertain, but a diagram from 1935.... Should these be 1834 and 1835? JoeBrennan ( talk) 22:44, 15 February 2020 (UTC).
