Been looking at maybe giving up my rail pass with the move to bus eireann instead.
I was amazed that the price of bus eireann to irish rail is not much cheaper if not more expensive
example is Wicklow
BS €2,100 pa
IR €1,770 pa
BS this

I currently drive to Maynooth 10 ish miles and pay €1,030 for my Irish Rail pass while my BS pass would be €1,776.
That is crazy. Bus is no more than 25 miles into Busáras.
I would have thought the bus would be cheaper than the train
