Legal requirements on accessibility are fuzzy basically IE said they would but they don't do the full job and of course we have solid proof of this its sitting outside the shed in Fairview
UK are spending up to €300k per coach on HST carriages which are already pushing 30 years. Option on 24 more Mk4 coaches €42-45 million or basically the cost to totally refit the entire IE Mk3 fleet and have a lot of change
So money wise assuming a 35 year life there is at least 12 years left in the IE batch
