How much does it cost to take the train from Dublin to Cork?
I will be travelling by train from Dublin-Cork in April and I am wondering if it is worth it to purchase tickets online ahead of time. Online, adult tickets may be purchased for 20 euros.
Does anyone know if such a price would be available to simply purchase at the station? Here is the website outlining the sale:

Thanks
Buy your tickets online! they are way more expensive buying them at the train station. An adult ticket return is €67 euro i know. So it would probably be around €40ish for a one way journey. Trust me, trust me, trust me, BUY THEM ONLINE WAY CHEAPER!!!

Buy on line, you will pay 3 times that much at the station. They also take an arm and a leg.

You have the exact information you need. It is indeed cheapest to do it online and then retrieve them at the station. You just use the credit card which you purchased the tickets with. It is an automated self serve machine. Your seats are reserved, and the ride is wonderful. It is the cheapest deal you will get.
