A set has been parked in longford since someday last week, moving from one siding to another every couple of days. Last night there were 2 29000's and the new intercity railcar in the sidings, making longford statioin look very important with all that hardware parked up!!!!

I take it the new service will be 2 intercity railcars in tandom i.e. 6 cars, if they only have 1 set irs going to tight!!!!

Why weren't they all ordered as 6 car sets?

3 car set has more seats than the current 4 car railcar also has proper luggage storage and even full size tables

Sligo is getting a at least 1 full six car set, Rosslare gets a mix and match of either single or pairs of 3 car sets
