    didn't notice that,, bad buzz. My thinking is due to the new commuter type trains they done have a reservation system in place unless their is another reason?

    maybe it's to compensate for the fact that your train has a 50% chance of actually running ...

    will the taxpayer be paying for these price cuts or will it come out of the strike drivers wages?

    I dont think these fares are any different to the "special" online fares they were selling up to this week.
    in fact there is a huge banner at heuston they have had up for weeks with exactly the same fare prices.....

    It doesn't cost more if you fill empty seats.

    They are different
    Half the normal online price in fact.
    You see the discount at the last booking stage.
