On that point, there is obviously a current capacity constraint, particularly at peak times. There is a real issue in that once the train gets to Leixlip Confey, it is standing room only at all stations at peak time all the way to the city centre. Therefore, the lead-in time is very important because there is already an issue. Will the existing trains or the trains that are to be purchased be compatible with the electrified service?
