Sinn Fein will provide a network of bullet trains throughout the country. It will be called the Shinnerkansen.
Building a proper train makes it easier and more affordable to live out side expensive urban centres.
Thatāll surely enhance everyoneās living including emigrants who come the country.
Very easy to find work in Dublin but itās too expensive for most to live there on a minimum wage. It would also open up the option for students to travel for education and not have pay fortunes on student accommodation which they may only need 3 or 4 nights a week.
It would also decrease are dependence on cars which would be good for the climate.
The money they make back off the train system could be used to buy electric cars which could be shared and rented too. Be A huge help to tourists.
Iāll say one thing about the Galway to Limerick train service, itās appropriately priced, almost.

I was just looking there the Dublin to Galway train is 3
Hours that canāt be right?
It varies from around 2:25 to 2:45. In terms of advertised times anyway. The bus is 2:30 and pretty much always arrives on the button.

I got the train from Florence to Rome in 90 minutes. I had only one complaint.
Thatās 270 km looking at maps.
Dublin to Galway is 210 kms and it takes nearly 3 hours.
Thatās a total joke.
Athlone is a hidden gem
Why were they complaining to you?
Itās a dedicated service for Munster rugby supporters who live in Galway.
I could think of one or two prominent gaa players whoād get their quicker than 2 and a half hours

This is a grand YouTube channel. Some of the Limericks might be able to spot themselves on the platform at Thurles as he goes through it after the Limerick-Waterford game in 2023.
If Ireland planned a high speed rail network now, it might conceivably be delivered by 2050, but I doubt it.
Theyāve made another bollix of the Dart Coastal North and I say left themselves open to a judicial review.
