The 13:00 to Sligo seems to always be a 29k on a Friday probably because is too busy to be run by a 3x22k and they don't have any other spare 22Ks available. Hence Irish Rail need to drive some customers away by making it a 29k.

I am always quite surprised when I take an afternoon Sligo train. You would think a mid afternoon service like the 3PM would be deserted yet they end up being packed. It is quite an achievement for Irish Rail to lose money on this level of business.
