Of course. I have made representations on this before to Irish Rail and to the Minister and the response has been that the existing diesel carriages from the DART fleet will be provided to the regional routes. I am very concerned to hear today that there are even further delays in the deployment of the new carriages and that we are talking 2027 or 2028, realistically, for regional routes like between Athenry and Galway to benefit from this. We have a real crisis now, and it is a problem that is not going away and is going to get worse. Is there any alternative solution to this? Can new carriages be sourced elsewhere? Can additional services be put in place here?
