Waterford-Rosslare reopening?

dowlingm · 30-06-2012, 03:06

What sort of facilities are there in Waterford? Seems to me it would be better to contract IE Limerick Depot to do all but the daily checks with equipment swaps similar to those on the Ballina service - they've got the expertise and it might be worth it for IE to keep their hand in in case the 2700s needed to be reactivated in a hurry, for instance in a scenario where an existing fleet is discovered to have a class wide issue which would cause withdrawal for a significant period.
