I think whatever happens the Cork-Dublin-Belfast line should end up with the same stock. Please lets not do another DD enterprise!

What is the max speed of those DD coaches anyway? Thought they were limited to 90mph?

I'd suspect that the plan is to use the CAF design + buy a whole load of power cars for the CAF sets.

As it stands the enterprise is not much faster than a bus.

Are translink that broke?
