Having seen some of the FOI material posted on boards, there are inconsistencies in the data. One document says
"59K journeys period 4-5, compared to 87K Glounthaune-Midleton"
The other says
"31K journeys period 4-9, compared to 109K Glounthaune-Midleton"
a period being 4 weeks.

An additional point of interest is that the boardsies were jumping all over West on Track about a release posted on their site about 16,000 journeys made on the new section when the FOI data says only about 7,000 - thing is, WOT didn't write the release, they reposted one that IE Corporate Comms did - in fact it's got their info right at the bottom of it.
