    According to www.a-b.ie, you can take the Bus Eireann X12 to Portlaoise and then a bus operated by Slieve Bloom Coaches to Portarlington. The first will take 1h15 and the second 25 minutes. There's a timetable for the second bus here. It does say that they don't run on bank holiday so watch out for that.

    I've never done that trip so I'm not standing over any of that information but if you can't trust the NTA, we're in trouble :)

    Would the train not work out ?
    I understand can be more € but if you book online works out cheaper.

    ye was just hoping for the bus cause of a direct route instead of the hassle of luas then train guess it has to be done though:P
