DART weekday cancellations
 

Just seen a note on tara street saying the following:

wow cutbacks already!

And the budget still hasn't been given :eek:

If thats darts it doesn't bode well for commuter services:(

Only appeared yesterday, very well hidden in Pearse

Fairly horrible cuts since they open up big gaps in the timetable.

The DART timetable is so bad now that is they bothered to look at it, it is probably possible to run a train every 15 minutes off peak and end up with fewer actual services due to the way you get the weird two trains 5 minutes apart then 20 minute gap rubbish

The 9.40 Bray Howth has been missing in action on random days in the past few weeks already

The list of cancellations on the dart line has been updated to include saturday cancellations. See top post.

Saw that today was well, the now almost permanently unstaffed at weekends Seapoint had this
Attachment 833

Note the omission of 'cancellation' no reason given

Oddly enough, they are back up to the full DART fleet after the refurbishment project.

They are on a desperate hunt to save money

Not sure if this is related, but the online timetable shows a northbound train from Blackrock at 16:50:

While the realtime one currently shows:

Is this the realtime system acting up or is there a train missing?

DART with Howth on the front is just arriving Tara Street now, seems to be running. Looks like a IT issue, not a cancellation

Bah, could have been home 15 minutes earlier. That's what I get for trusting the 'real time' system. Thanks.
