Irish Rail now charging for Wi-Fi

"Free" WiFi, if it attracts extra customers (estecially Premium or 1st Class), does not need an explicit user charge to justify it. It's a bit like a mirror-image of the tha car-parking charges where the net revenue to IE could well be negative if you take the change in customer numbers into account.

Difficult to measure, but one should not ignore the principle.
