All of late 2011 all services from/to Longford and Dundalk will be 22k operated. There 22k fleet are common, either 3 or 6 car and the 6 car either has first class or no first class. No Cobh or Midleton services are 22k, only Cork-Mallow-Kerry in the 2010 timetable as it should be.

Remember 6 coaches had to be sent back to Korea due in transit damage, they have been scrapped and 6 new ones built. The final 3 car set should appear in service in coming days and a number are trapped beyond Carrick-in-Shannon

The released trains go to Dunboyne and elsewhere

Lets hope that final 3 car set is shared between Sligo and Wexford!

Remember Sligo still has 29ks on Sundays which is disgraceful. This must come to an end soon.

I think the final set for service is a 6-car non-premier version 22045. All 3 car sets bar the two returned to Korea are in service. These two will apparently not be replaced until the next deliveries in late 2010 as they will added to the 51 car order.
