    The fact is that CIE cannot operate railways and people will use trains where a decent service is provided.

    Well it is silly. It is quicker and cheaper by bus and it was before the line was restored

    Ah, feck off, Joe. Just when somebody who actually knows about the subject and has an interesting fund of stories is about to get going (or bore the hole of you, depending on your pov), you shut him down.
    Pat had a point about the railways being a strategic resource that should be maintained.
