If you can fit the full fares engine into 64kb let us know, Irish Rail would really like to talk to you. The existing booking office equipment is past it and that is the key restriction as it must be replaced in order to support the upcoming change in the fare structures
Our fares engine consistently beats Irish Rail in terms of accuracy plus on our side we can show the basis of the fare determination. Our tool already supports both the existing and future fare structure.
The existing booking engine was hand built internally in 2005 at minimal cost on the premise of basic point to point intercity fares on certain routes. it works pretty well but it can't cope with the strange fare structure Irish Rail has once we try a complex routing
