Friday 12 Jan 2007: 18:00 from Heuston

At 18:05 (we still hadn't pulled out of Heuston) all passengers were informed to disembark from the train due to the need to test the doors. We all got off. ...

17/01/07 - 17:25 Heuston to Limerick: announcements so loud your ears would bleed. Needless to say no-one missed their stop. Or no-one was able to snooze.

I can't understand why it will take time. :confused:

Just thinking out loud here but should the new timetable schedules not be effective immediately? It's not like a new pair of shoes in that...

Back to the timetable issue...

I can't see any evidence of it being more punctual yet - 17:25 to Limerick yesterday (Monday) was 5 mins late arriving in Kildare (18:14); 7:16 from Kildare to Dublin today was 14 mins late arriving...

I don't think the punctuality of the new timetable argument will last too long - in fact this morning proved that IE didn't even try to start on a good footing: the 7:16 from Kildare departed at...

Those stats are great - if they're realistic. From experience (and I've been commuting for the last 15 years) 5-8 minute delays (in "railspeak") mean 15-20 minutes delays in reality.

Just got my hands on a copy of the 2007 timetable for Dublin-Kildare. As a Kildare commuter I'm quite disappointed to see that the 17:30 to Kildare which used to have a scheduled arrival of 18:05...
