Lot of question about this have been asked, we can confirm

6 coach trains (3 sets = 18 coaches)

The 5:45, 7:00, 9:00 and 15:00 Sligo Dulbin
The 11:05, 16:00, 17:05 and 19:05 Dublin Sligo

3 coach trains (2 sets = 6 coaches)

The 11:00, 13:00, 17:00 and 19:00 Sligo Dublin
The 7:05, 9:05, 13:05 and 15:05 Dublin Sligo

All peak hour services in both directions are covered by full 6 coach train sets which will result in a very significant improvement in matters in the evening

Irish Rail currently only have 18 of the new railcars in service, only 12 are on the Sligo line, so they need another 12, 15 for comfort in service for Monday

Edit IE signed 6 more in this afternoon, so now only missing 6, or 9 to play it safe
