Poll: How often do you travel by train?

Choo choo.

TRAVELLING BY TRAIN can be a great option for people looking to save money with the recently reduced fares and cut down on fuel usage getting from A to B. 

But access varies widely across the country – there are no trains in Donegal and a lot of rural areas don’t have a station nearby or infrequent access to services. 

The Guardian published a piece on Friday speaking to Irish commuters on the Dublin-Sligo line. They had mixed experiences travelling by train – with some saying their journey was not the norm as they usually travel by car. 

Today’s poll is asking: How often do you travel by train?


Poll Results:

Every now and then  (8943)
Never  (7654)
Every week  (1349)
Every day (652)
