The July 1865 edition of "Appletons' [sic] Railway and Steam Navigation Guide" includes a timetable for the Atlantic & Great Western Railway. Below are links to two images showing the timetable as it appeared in the guide.
It is interesting to compare the running times for various trains between this timetable and a May 1862 timetable. As the line went from two trains per day in each direction to four, the speed for the express train increased by 40 per cent while the accommodation train actually decreased by 12 per cent.
