hi,
Well i'm on the 16:50 belfast train. I was told at entry that anyone who had an annual pass would be let through. There was a queue forming with non-annual ticket holders but as of 16:44 the train is relatively empty... oh i was told that one of the mysterious passes is in the post to me!! i actually haven't seen one yet! So yep there may be a few less people on the 1713 train... but since that train is usually less full of dundalk people and mostly skerries/Balbriggan/Gormanston/laytown and drogheda with the final 200 or so getting off in dundalk I doubt it will make too much difference either.

Considering some of the laws for CIE date before there was even a republic... eg 1850??? maybe some government official might try and get them brought into eu standards.
