Irish Rail - family ticket from Dundalk to Connolly

nd001

Hi I am wondering if anyone would be able to tell me what would be the best return ticket for 2 adults and one child from dundalk to dublin. I am hoping to bring the young fella to dublin on the train it will be his first time on the train. I would prefer to use the enterprise for comfort/handiness but I would use the commuter service if there was a huge difference in price. I am hoping to travel on the 26th of this month. Thanks in advance

No difference in price whether it's Enterprise or commuter train. But you can only book the Enterprise in advance. Either way day return fare is €29.70 for an adult according to website but should be €29.40 per page 14 of this
