    Late night trains always have a heavy security and ticket checking presence and I've never seem any problems or people being thrown off.

    trains or trams? trains have turnstiles which keep out the scum.

    have turnstiles which keep out the scum.

    They are great once the gate next to them isn't open.....

    In regard to security and ticket inspectors on the Luas at night, I have used it a lot over the last few weeks (Red Line) and have had my ticket checked most nights. Must also say I felt safe on it to, the first time in a while. Does anyone else think the anti social behavior has calmed down a little?

    Also whats the story with gardi going around with ticket checkers at times>

    This €36m is needed to pay for agreed voluntary redundancies and early retirements don't forget

    Knowing these 'companies' it is probably cheaper overall to let them retire at normal retirement age.

    Not quite the point, if they are there next year

    a) they will cost a lot more than intended
    b) Varadkar still needs to up the 2013 subvention by much of the same €36m to pay for the delayed ( and agreed) redundancies.
