    How much do Bus Eireann intercity drivers and Iarnrod Eireann train drivers earn per week? The average wage, I'm just curious about it.

    train, but schedule and price, often means I'm stuck with the bus. ):

    depends what sort of bus it is, national express coaches are very nice in england, leather seats and all. trains have too many yuppies in them with their suits and hipster glasses on.

    If there's direct motorway route between point A and point B, bus is grand. Otherwise, train.

    But the bus drops you to the city centre.

    'Cheap' being relative though.

    I used to take Dublin bus into work and it cost as much as the last vehicle I owned. I mean, that's pretty expensive in my book.
    Yeh I should say I'm only referring to long-distance journeys.

    Long-distance ones like Dublin-Cork.

    You'd be a train wanker though.

    Doesn't have the same ring to it. Bonus point for originality though, what with the wanker bit.

    If you had to take one for a journey?


    Always train.
    1) bar
    2) bathroom
    3) no traffic


    Have met others who will never ever use the train & always take the bus ( with option of both)

    How about you?
    Most trains don't have a bar and I have never seen one with a bathroom nor do I understand why anyone would want to take a bath on the train, also anyntrain I have been on is usually held up along the line somewhere because of traffic, waiting for other trains to pass or clear the line so they can proceed. Most train journeys would be significantly faster were it not fore traffic!
