I like the way you say "attempt" to introduce a CDE set. Sounds like you have great confidence in IE!

Seriously, I am a little surprised at just one set. As far as I am aware at least 4 sets have been delivered to date. The 7.00 ex Dublin is one of the CityGold sets, (each of which does 3 journeys per day) and it alternates with the 0700 ex Cork. Maybe they will introduce one CDE to-morrow and another the day after, thus establishing two alternating sets in service to replace the CityGolds.

But maybe that's being too rational.
