It improved in accuracy between the Hatch and Heuston. In fact the padding helped both trains knock about 5 minutes off their predicted arrival time. The wierd stuff happened when it failed to realise that the Galway train was behind the late Waterford train from Cherryville.

What is Irish Rails policy on priority for late trains? It seems to be a "try and catch up as much as possible for the timing stats", rather than, "a let the trains that are on time stay on time and fit the late one in." Or maybe it depends on the fat controller on the day!
