    I might get a chance to start work placement in Malahide, but obviously i live in Kildare Town. I can get there by car (it would be expensive) or train to Heuston and than Luas to Malahide (feeder ticket). Any suggestion about cheapest way to get there? How much it would be for feeder ticket? Anyone of You are going in that direction by any chance :) ?

    The LUAS doesn't go to Malahide. You'd have to get off at Connolly and get back on a train. It'd be a fairly hefty commute, time wise, that way. I haven't a clue about cost.

    Tax saver.ie will give you an idea of the cost of commuter tickets.
    Dart.ie will give you a. Idea of the dart times and frequency for Malahide,as not all darts go there.

    And more than just Darts go there. Some Northern commuter line trains also serve Malahide.

    If you can afford it probably best to drive. Drive is probably about 45 minutes.

    Other thing to consider is if the work is near the train station as some parts of Malahide would be 30 minutes walk from the station.

    You'll need a student travel card.

    What size engine would you be driving and is it diesel or petrol? Can give you an approx weekly petrol price.
