Since the Mk3's went there isn't any cover for the Mk4's on the Dublin Cork route, many trains mid week are carriying less than 100 people so a 3 car ICR is the best solution. The Mk4 couldn't hack the Dublin Limerick run, too many stops.
There is no mention of any reduction in services between Dublin and Cork other than the 20:30 Cork Dublin service being at risk though it can't be cancelled unless a Dublin Cork service is cancelled. The hourly service will be maintained.
