Mark, I would like to know your opinion on this matter. Dalkey's timetable will have been the same for two years if the 2008 timetable has indeed been set in stone until next September. Last year, the 15:36 Dalkey service to Maynooth stopped serving Dalkey, Shankill, Killiney and Glenageary despite the fact that loads of people got on at these stations. Now they have paired it down even further to go none stop between Blackrock and Landsdown road. Currently there are DART services which go none stop between Bray and Dun Laoghaire from Greystones and others which begin their journey at Dun Laoghaire. This leaves an uneven amount of services between the following stretches:
Dun Laoghaire - Connolly(A lot of services particularly in Blackrock*, Sydney Parade and Dun Laoghaire* itself.)
Bray - Dun Laoghaire(Noticeably fewer services)
The two stations marked with an * have gained an extra service.Fair enough, if the two are major bus interchages. However, Dalkey in particular being a small town in itself is at the moment poorly serviced by both bus and train.
