Morning from Tralee is regularly full

They need 7 Mk4 sets and 1 spare, only 5 are currently on the books as available, there wont be a spare on Jan 14th. The current record is 3 breakdowns in 9 hours. Set 8 is still undergoing modifications in Connolly, set 4 still needs them, sets 7 and 8 have yet to carry a passenger

All Dublin Cork and Dublin Limerick sets must be 100 mph capable so you need the right kind of spare
