i'm sure you're just being provocative as usual, but quaint or not the line south of Bray is well used for the commuter services at least. Slow as it is the DART is the quickest method of commuting from Greystones to Dublin and closing it would put a lot of extra cars on the road.

South of Gorey is debatable - they certainly shouldn't keep pushing the commuter terminus further south as it will just encourage more long distance commuting.

I agree theres no point spending big money on the line - the benefits would be negligible, but like practically all other lines it could do with better timetabling and less padding.
