Hi Unshelved, nice to see someone else from the same route
I got the 06:58 train instead today, to avoid being in a hurry to get to work. And I think I'll have to continue this if the situation doesn't improve.
The train situation in the morning is desperate. They need to add more carriages, more trains or something to improve matters. I wish they had the double decker trains like in France.
I'm an evening stander until balbriggan on the way back. I know how awful it can be to stand and not even be able to drink a bit of water cos you've no room to lift your arm.
I agree with you on the ticket checking taking too long at Pearse, it's a daily pain, but what can we do, get off at another station and have longer walks in the morning?
