It was a good day but and its a big but not all went right, the ride was seriously objectionable at times, the set used did not have the suspension modifications. When the catering staff who are long experienced in wine pouring on trains object you got a problem but we know that there is already a fix

The PIS crashed partially, but a live reboot while moving is not advised since it gets lost, the computer system did log the fault

There was a lot of crossed fingers but for a regular passenger it was fine. To be fair the staff worked a miracle in Cork the on train computer was not loaded until after we started to board and everything worked spot on

Minister Cullen travelled only 22 miles on the train, the rest of us did 328 miles and thanks to the minister we had to skip desert
