I don't know why, but I have virtually never seen any references to rail travel in Ireland here on this forum, and I have read tens of thousands of posts here.<BR><BR>So, I looked it up - - on http://www.irishrail.ie/your_ticket/fares_enquiries.asp - - and they list 22 to 32.50 euro for an adult single, and 22.50 euro for a student return (roundtrip) fare.<BR><BR>I can't recall ever seeing references to this website here befpore ever -- but it was readily located from the Europe rail &quot;mega-site - - http://mercurio.iet.unipi.it/misc/timetabl.html<BR><BR>Best wishes,<BR><BR>Rex<BR>[email protected]<BR>

Rex -I am so grateful to you, and not for the first time I seem to remember.<BR>I searched on Irish Railways last night before posting but could only come up with fares for season tickets.<BR>Your reply just shows the value of this board. I live two hours from Ireland(by road and boat) and yet I get more useful information from Ohio than I can find in Wales!<BR>Thanks again

You're very welcome. I appreciate your flatteringly kind remarks.<BR>
