Ha, Try finding Irish Rail putting on extra staff! The Cobh ine especially has turned into a farce, loads of people are travelling for free because there is no ticket machines or staff at the stations ( except Cobh & Glounthaune) and no ticket checker on most trains to sell tickets! Even people who would want to pay cant. Hop on, Hop off, noone will notice. I was told by a staff member that the revenue at one of the unmanned stations is down 80% the past 2 years! What a way to run a railway. It is such a shame considering it is a good service. Midleton works a lot better, though the trains should have checkers.
