The costs do add up so enjoy the service while its there as it is very lightly that it will canceled after the 6 months.
If that is the case what is the 1340 to Limerick all about. Given that this exercise is supposed to be about improving services via Nenagh one would have to question why the set for the 1340 doesn't work a service from Heuston ahead of the 1300 and then shunt to the branch to form a connection off the 1300.
