    Irish rail have an offer from Galway, ennis, cork, Dublin etc. for limerick next weekend.

    Is the offer available from intermediate stations, say gort, charleville etc., or just those advertised on the website?

    So, I try emailing Irish rail and get the message below.

    Can anybody answer my question or have an email for Irish Rail that works?

    Not directly answering your question but isn't there a strike planned for next Sunday/Monday? Apologies if Saturday is your travel day.

    I would imagine that it is available from intermediate stations.


    They are online fares - so try out intermediate stations in the journey planner.

    Ask on Twitter or Facebook. They usually reply

    Hoping to go Satruday, so avoid the strike.

    Don't do either of those, they should be able to answer email enquiries filled in via their website just as easily though.

    That's what I was hoping to do then hop on and off at my local station along the way but the link to book it on their website is not working and it says these tickets can be booked at the station, so I am guessing it requires human over the counter which is not an option at smaller stations.

    I will probably have to drive to the station advertised, buy the ticket there and return to my local station and board there and get off there again on the way home.

    You just need to enter the stations as normal in the journey planner, there's no special link.

    Bear in mind that the combined return fare is calculated after you select your trains and may be cheaper than the two single fares.

    It is the family fares that are available from railway stations.

    Recent trend for companies is to have more and possibly better customer support staff for twitter as its a very public form of humiliation.
