IT story on the extended 33 bus services that will remain.

Given the fact that the viaduct has collapsed, IE did a good job to get in back open within 3 months, but how many passengers have they lost because of it?

No question three months was a serious miracle, though exactly in line with our initial estimate.

Problem is the bus has proven itself to be an excellent option for many (though not all) Irish Rail have to raise their game.

The train is too slow, too expensive and lacks accountability when it goes wrong (note not if, but when). People are entitled to value for money, Irish Rail could provide this if they made the effort to meet the promises given in the past.
