If you look you'll also find that http://www.irishrail.com and http://www.irishrail.org among others all work.

It's standard practise for companies to buy up domains to stop them falling into the hands of other people. Actually what amazed me is the fact somebody in Irish Rail thought of doing it!

There is a story behind that, someone else owned irishrail.net and IE started to ask questions, and of course we know who owned it
