Network average is over 50%

It has been possible to book to/from WRC stations for ages, this is just for the regional Galway - Limerick section.

Irish Rail has expended a very significant amount of time and resources in hacking its system to allow for the WRC in this way. We are very much of the opinion that time could have been spent elsewhere where it could have generated a far greater benefit to passengers and the bottom line.

That opinion is supported by the lack of complaints or feedback we have received

The bulk of our discussions in recent months with Irish Rail have hit the response we are tied up with the WRC, that change will have to wait...

We are still waiting for Pearse, Dun Laoghaire, Adamstown, Parkwest, Clondalkin to be added plus fixes for a number of fare inconsistencies. Irish Rail fully agrees with our view that our suggestions are, a) sensible, b) easy to implement, c) will increase revenue, but a higher power said WRC must come first. We did get Sallins working though
