The new IC railcars are due to hit the December 2007 timetable, now given what happend with the CDE's i'd susupect they wont go into service next year at all.
Sligo will definitly get them, more than likely aiing for December next year, Rosslare will not get them, ever, from what I know.
As for Mk3's, those being taken off Cork are going to the Limerick service which is going every two hours this December and also to Galway apart from the City Golds, which we expect to see heading to the Belfast line.
Mk2ds - the entire Connolly collection is now running from Heuston, and you'll have noticed a lot of carraiges hanging around there and Inchicore. In theory they could go back to the sligo service or be used as back up for failed enterprise services but I fell the decision is made, within 18 months they'll be gone.
The slio commuter railcar should go to Kildare/Maynooth/Pace services.
If you llive in Maynooth or Leixlip dont forget the 66X Bus is a very very good service.
