I want to use the Irish passport now that I have it, and like others have
said, an EU passport saves time when I would be going through immigration
checks--and, although I anticipate having a shorter trip, I could also
decide to stay longer--and the EU passport would help in that instance.

I guess there is no legal way to get around taking the US passport with
me--since I am supposed to enter and leave the US on it--and then also for
on the train in case they want to see it in conjunction with my rail pass.

Among other possible reasons, it would permit you to stay in
Europe as long as you liked.

Didn't the OP say they were only going to be in Europe for 2-3 months? I
think they just thought it would be neat-o to use a European passport.

It also can save time at Immigration.
