Iarnród Éireann has confirmed it is looking to lower their operating costs on a mid-west rail line.

The Nenagh to Limerick line was opened 18 months ago.

It was hoped at the time that over 360 passengers a day would use the service.

However Iarnród Eireann said today that the number of journeys per day is averaging at 80 and are now examining ways to cut costs by looking at simplification of signalling and examining using buses to cut costs.

The news comes as the company prepares to launch a new service from Limerick to Galway next week.
