Do you know if there is a buffet/snack car on board like on most other intercity services?
Will there be a first class carriage?
Are these new trains really Intercity's or just upgraded and better commuter services
Hey Dave,
Your like myself, I seen the new InterCity's yesterday at Connolly working the 17:05 Sligo and I have to say they are very impressive way better than the pictures. The inside is lovely, When you see the train you'll understand.

There is no Buffet/Snack car on any of the 3 car sets but Mark G mentioned there will be a trolley service (Example) Connolly-Longford the trolley will be in the first 3 sets then at Longford change to the other 3sets.

The internal engines are brillant they can gain speed quickly and they are not as noisy as the 29000/2800's Commuter trains. I can honestly say the new trains do have that InterCity feeling to them.
You will like them no doubt....... KSW
