Now, I'm an old fart and don't get out much but what time do the late pubs and nightclubs close at?

And, unlike ourselves, still no card facilities on Irish Rail?

Excellent service. Normal train fares apply. Well done Inrod Airan.

Spotlessly clean as well, I hear. Not surprising if all the trains have left by the time the pubs/clubs kick out!

Plenty of work from the DART stations.

Usually a good service... I can never understand folk who keep calling for the DART to be extended, it's a fucking cattle truck compared to intercity trains... although last time I took the last train home from Dublin some technical issue dictated that we had to take a DART from Pearse to Connolly. Not a big deal you might think but it happened to be one of the nights Garth Brooks was simging in Croke Park... Friends in Low places slurred out of tune for 40+ minutes is what followed.

Plenty of work everywhere on weekend nights if you work for Free Now. early weeknights die a death in December though... roll on January, I say.
