Thurles, Templemore not charged for

Fairly certain the expanded car park in Gormanston was done entirely on IE owned land. Its half empty

There is a DoT fund to pay for Park and Ride schemes, its there for the taking. Irish Rail are making it sound like they are paying for it and therefore need to recoup costs

The entire point of park and ride is to get someone out of their car and onto public transport. More people use public transport the lower the cost to the tax payer to provide it, less traffic

No one ever asks how a road will repay its captial costs, but public transport is forced to recoup every penny.
