Thanks for clarifying that.

Overall it seems to me that there is an increasing demand for trains but the IR network and fleet is not able to handle that demand in a sufficient way. Fair enough if there are 8-car sets running and they are still packed then we can talk about increasing the frequency. At the end of the day more customers for IR can only be a good thing, as long as these customers are satisfied with the service...

My point is that there is no justification just to send out a 4-car train on a busy service in the morning and cause all this tension. Just 2 extra cars will do the job! (by the way the train was 6-cars this morning, it just to unpredictable what will happen next week).
