That is critical information because it seems to me that the real growth in public transport use, particularly train use, is in commuter travel.

It might be commuting halfway across this State, but it is still commuter travel. It is five days a week, up and down to work. I know somebody who commutes from Galway to Dublin to work. That is key because of what I said earlier about the regional cities. Could Mr. Meade tell me how long it takes to go from Galway to Athenry?
