To be fair, Sligo and Rosslare intercity fares are significantly lower than other intercity routes, viz: a single fare today to Limerick: €41.50, Rosslare: €19.00, Sligo: €25.00

Taking distances into account that's still almost half price. I appreciate 3 hours on a DMU must (literally) be a pain in the arse but I think it's fair to say that the Sligo and Rosslare routes are not treated like intercity routes, neither in price nor in service.

Would people be prepared to accept intercity fares (e.g. about €43 to Sligo and €36 to Rosslare, single) to have intercity comfort and service?
