As some might expect from the herald the quailty of journalism is poor
No date or train time is given there is only one direct train from Tralee to Dublin and it leaves at 9:15 am, and it takes close to 4 hours
Fact is simple we live in a country where everyone thinks they have the right to show up 10 minutes before the train is due and get a seat regardless of any other factors. If you want a seat you book in advance and seat reservations are free of charge
There is no safety guidance in Ireland or in Europe concerning the safe level of crowding, the trains are designed to take massive passenger loads on paper the train will never reach a unsafe state.
The advice is if you are unhappy with the level of crowding don't get on. You are entitled to a full refund in this case
