We have no stats on the Mk3 but I've never experienced a single failure on a Mk3, its always worked, no dodgy brakes, no failed suspension so its clearly waaaaaaaaay better

We don't know which coach it is, and since sets swap around we can't pick it out. From what I know its a standard class coach and might be number 4142
I spent 3 years travelling Cork-Dublin return every week and I only ever had a single breakdown because of the Mark III coaches.
