Wow imagine if we had that infrastructure now.
You got to give credit to the Brits, they did it properly.

While we can rightfully give the state a kicking for a myriad of stupid things blaming them for not maintaining tram lines for 50 years on the off chance they'd become useful again is unfair. Can you imagine the abuse they would've got in the interim for "wasting taxpayers money" on maintaining "old tram lines not even being used". Nostradamus couldn't have predicted they'd become useful again.
They didn't have an empire for no reason .Wow imagine if we had that infrastructure now.

Well said Lee.
Very true Mer.
CIE were a disastrous shower who had the monopoly on public transport at the time.
They didn't want a lot of train lines. They were happy with Dublin to Cork, Limerick, Waterford Galway and Belfast. Buses for other routes. Crazy when you think that there wasn't a direct train from Cork to Limerick, without having to change at that godforsaken kip Limerick Junction.The 2nd and 3rd cities in the country with no direct link. Road between the two cities was fairly crap too.
A lot of it would still be financially unviable.Wow imagine if we had that infrastructure now.
