Direct Dublin to Sligo bus?

Hi,

I'm going to Sligo from Dublin tomorrow but the Bus Eireann buses seem to take upwards of 7 hours. Surely there is a more direct service than this?

I need to be in Sligo by 7pm at the latest. Thanks guys.

The longest I've been on a bus is 5 hours, usually they're 3.5 - 4 hours, never 7!!

The train is a lot nicer. Seriously.

There's no competitor to BÉ . (There may have been a competitor years ago, Bartons maybe?)

I got the airport bus last year its a disgrace it follows the old parts of the n4 4 hours to travel 120 miles is a joke it can be driven in a hour and 50 mins if you don't meet much traffic

Feck, you must drive like grease lighting, takes me about 2 to get to Maynouth, and thats on a clear road.

Well what actually happened was I missed the bus by about 1 minute, got the train instead!
