The curtains are gone

The curtains have disappeared.

When Irish Rail introduced its new InterCity fleet on the Dublin Cork service, the Spanish built trains came with curtains on every window.

It seemed at the time to this blogger a terrible waste of money. Irish Rail PR personnel adamantly disagreed and pointed out the importance and value in the curtains.

The curtains are now gone and not a word from Irish Rail.

How much did it cost to fit out eight trains with curtains on every window?
