Translink £10 day return beginning to bite

[tigger1962]

Due to a bad IE service to dundalk between 15.00 and 18.00, I've had to start getting the 15.20 enterprise service (I can never guarantee the 16.50 will be in dundalk on time to collect my daughter)

over the last few weeks I've noticed this train gets busier and busier, and this week its been particularly bad. From what i can see and from tickets It seems to be down to the £10 return that Translink are running.. Talk about rubbing it in to Dundalk passengers. I note the IE monopoly on the northern line don't do similar promotions
