Also, just looking at the the timetable there is the 1705 from Dublin Heuston to Tralee which is booked to have a buffet/restaurant car, is this booked for Mk4s as well?
Thanks

The 1705 to Tralee is a 5-car Class 22000 InterCity Railcar with Premier Class, the car with PC has a buffet counter with Galley at the inner end. The Mk4s are exclusively Dublin-Cork I'm afraid, loco-haulage on other Irish internal lines ended in October 2009.

Be aware that the First Class offering differs between the ICRs and Mk4s. The ICRs (Premier Class) are 2+2 seating and the supplement is €12.50, the Mk4s (CityGold Class) are 2+1 seating and €25.

Apologies but looks like the above may have changed since I wrote them up last. I will recheck them later today and post any changes.

I have fully rechecked the above, at present I believe holiday alterations apply, but the above services are correct normally with the exception that the 1525 Cork-Dublin is now Mk4 on Saturdays only.

Thanks again! So all are as stated before except the 1525 Cork-Dublin on Mon-Sat or does this apply to Sunday as well?

Just the 1525 on Saturdays, the 1525 on Sundays was a Mk4 already.

All bar the 1800 and 2100 from Dublin and the 1425 from Cork on Sundays are booked Mk4s, essentially nearly every service on a Sunday is Mk4.

I'll see if I can match them to present services, departures from Cork are usually XX:25 these days.

As we're now in the New Year, I thought I'd take the opportunity to update the list of Mk4 services based on the latest timetable:

A question: had the service increased that not all diagrams are covered by MK 4? Did they not buy enough or is it a technical problem?
Thanks.

No, some Dublin-Cork are still 22000 Class InterCity Railcars. I've posted the present spread of services above.
