How many consultants has Iarnród Éireann used in the last three or four years? Did it employ consultants and when their findings were not what it wanted, did it get rid of them? I have a feeling these consultants were brought in to do a hatchet job on the western rail corridor. First, they got the mileage between Sligo and Cork wrong. Second, they produced exorbitant costs for trains. Six trains would have been sufficient for a commuter line between Galway and Sligo but the consultants say 15 trains and locomotives would be required. A job was done on the western rail corridor. People in the west believe they must have the same services as other areas and the same pressure will be applied in this regard as was applied to save the Sligo line.
