Irish Rail are to allow passengers to bring their bicycles with them on the DART and Commuter Rail in off-peak times for free. Good and about time. But they are to continue to charge for passengers to take bicycles on their InterCity services.
They should immediately change that and allow passengers take cycles for free on their InterCity trains.
On the Mark Fours there is plenty of capacity and the InterCity Rail Cars could also take the cycles.
The revenue they at present take in for the carrying of cycles on InterCity trains is negligible so why bother charging.
It is a typical silly Irish Rail 'thing' and is of course a nonsense. It's similar to their asking passengers to be board trains before they actually arrive at stations.
