I managed to crash one of the TVM's last week, screen wouldn't redraw correctly. Noticeably slower than in the past

As we all know Irish Rail staff don't know how to issue several of the monthly tickets

Bit of research tells me the Luas + 90 ticket has Luas + 90 on it so its valid, but the ticket is refused by the station turnstiles, yet another wonderful mess thanks the geniuses in Irish Rail

Can anyone explain why someone travelling from skerries or balbriggan using a monthly rail only ticket has to pay €13 more (103) than someone from rush and lusk who pays only €90. I saw this checking out the zonal prices on the machine.

Its the same for greystones to kilcoole. Bray is cheaper again.

Note: the bus and rail monthly is sixteen euros dearer at €119 and covers as far as balbriggan and kilcoole as well as dublin bus and nitelink (source: dublin bus website)

Short hop zone monthly is 103.00 euro according to the book, not 113.00

The Inner hop boundary is Donabate/Bray/Maynooth/Hazelhatch

Inner hop only valid to Rush and Lusk unfortunately.

Jayz lads by the sound of things they didn't buy new TVMs but retooled Dempsey's voting machines instead!
