Yes, I did remember the off-peak Luas fares. There was definitely a capacity constraint on the Dundrum line in pre-Covid times. People were actually getting the Luas from Dundrum to Kilmacud so they could cross the track to come back into town, because they could not get on the Luas in Dundrum. I do not think it is that bad now, but it was. This was before the carriages were linked, etc. I understand why the NTA does not do it. If the difference is small, it is not enough to incentivise the move.
