We’ll train from Killarney to Limerick Junction, visit Cashel and the Rock, then take the train from Thurles to Dublin Hueston. My questions:
1) Is it easy to grab a taxi at Limerick Junction station to get to Cashel or do I need to book ahead? If the latter, whom do you recommend?
2) What is best way to get a taxi from a Cashel restaurant to Thurles station? Again, any taxi recommendations are appreciated.

Here’s my follow-up after our experience in early May.
At Limerick Junction, on a bulletin board in the lounge, there is a list (of 3) taxi companies that you can contact. I called the 2nd on the list (Michael ). Within ten minutes, our ride arrived (sorry I do not remember her name). She took us to ONeills Restaurant on Ladyswell St. in Cashel, where we had breakfast and had arranged to leave our light luggage. The wonderful staff at ONeills made numerous phone calls and eventually found us a taxi for later. Thank you again to them! After touring the town and the Rock we returned to ONeills for lunch. Again the staff were very friendly and helpful during a busy lunch business. Our driver to Thurles station, Haseeb Fahker, got us there in plenty of time for our train back to Dublin. Thanks to everyone involved, especially the staff at ONeills who went out of their way to take care of us.
I suggest if you have a chance to book taxis ahead, please do. Save those nice folks at ONeills some effort!
