Needless to say the usual fun and games are afoot in Irish Rail
The revised proposal which Irish Rail studied and rejected as for 3 trains each way. This would result in approx 250 journeys per day. Roughly 70,000 per annum. The Wexford study suggests closer to 300 per day. Both studies appear to ignore the potential if small of ferry traffic which could add 10%
Operating loss would fall from approx 2.4 million to 1.9 million (this the figure from the Fearn-Wexford letter)
