    Hi , i'm going to Dublin tomorrow from Limerick for the Ireland match. I'm 16 but I have bought a child ticket which is for under 16 but I don't look 16 . Will they ask for id which I don't have? See there is a big difference between paying 22 euro for a child ticket and 50 for an adult ticket.
    Thanks everyone

    So you basically want advice on how to cheat the system? You do know if you can't provide ID proving you are younger than 16 that you can be fined?

    If you are a teenager and are travelling on a child ticket they are likely to ask for ID to prove entitlement.

    A Student Return (college ID or Student Travel Card required) is €21.00 (promotional fare) or a 16-25 Railcard Return (ID required, bring photo to station) is €43.20.

    Alternatives are Dublin Coach for €20. http://dublincoach.ie/timetables/M7_bus_limerick_to_dublin_city.php or Bus Éireann route 12 http://www.buseireann.ie/inner.php?id=246

    If you don't produce ID you will get fined and will have to pay for the correct ticket on top of the fine.

    This is just a note for the future. Get a student travel card. I organised for my sister to get one now that she is over 15. You just need your school to stamp the form.

    You can't apply for the 16-25 railcard anymore, my other sister was looking into it.
    Applications for this card are no longer available, however customers in possession of a valid railcard can still avail of the discounted fare until their card has expired.
