Refreshment Rooms and Good Friday

Underground · 10-04-2017, 16:06

The lad in Donegal applied for (and got) a licence for a railway refreshment room, which allows him to sell alcohol all year round.

Pub licences are €45k on the open market.

My question is solely about railway refreshment rooms and terms to be served alcohol. The regulations apply 7 days a week, but the only enforcement by Irish Rail is on Good Friday, but no-one seems to know for definite what the regulations are.

Is it 5 miles, or an intercity ticket, or neither? As I said my understanding that you had to be in possession of a ticket to travel at some point in the future, regardless of distance or mode, hence making you a "traveller".
