As it turned out I was in a rush and just paid for the Luas on my smart card and picked up the ticket at Heuston (which annoyingly didn't say which train my reservation was on - utter, utter stupidity on IE's part: it gives the time for the notional departure from Dub city centre but not the time of the reserved t rain - STUPID).

Incidentally on the way back I took the 92 rather than the Luas and the driver was very confused, wanted me to put the ticket into the on-bus reader...

And of course, the ticket is not marked "IFS" or "Luas" or anything, so technically if I'd gone on the Luas I'd have been travelling without a ticket.

Is it that hard?
