Yes you are right ray900 that is whats happening. I know that driver well and i also know the man on the Portumna run well and it has come as quite a shock that they could be under threat. But as regards to the Ardcath run, there has been talk of getting rid of this run for quite some time now as i heard its only carrying a handful of passengers, so i've been told by several of the boys. I've also heard that Bailieboro is to be gone aswell. I can back that up as there are very few people using that 108 Bailieboro run and the only crowd who do is the people who use it between Kells and Dublin as it runs the same way from there. But then again it may all be just rumours. I heard and was expecting that the 109A service was to be cut back to a 3 or 4 hour service instead of the current every hour service but one of the lads told me today that it will now be starting in Kells up to the Airport and DCU instead of Navan where it starts and finishes at the moment. I heard that rumour about 6 months ago so i don't know how true it is though.
