Are there any sites which show cheap train tickets from Belfast to Cork?

My sister is wanting to travel down to Cork for a few days over Christmas.
I had a look at all the links from the main site here on train tickets. None of them seemed to recognise or find journeys that I looked for.
Does anyone know if there is any cheaper way to buy these tickets?
My sister is not into MSE at all, but I hate that she just pays full price for anything without looking for a good deal!!

Not sure about any cheap ticket sites but to get to Cork you need to get a train to Dublin - translink offer cheap day returns but not sure about returns not on same day
- then from Connolly to Heuston stations
- and then a train from Heuston to Cork - see here - I think buying online gets the ticket cheaper than just turning up at the station.
Still not cheap though - only people I know who use the train regularly are senior citizens with free travel. My aunt in Dublin thinks nothing of coming up to Belfast to meet me for lunch.

The bus is the other option. 3 changes. A day's travel.
Belfast - Cork air route now shut down.0
