This is the now standard punctuality standard crap, Sligo of course has the most reliable service in the country, that said its taking at least 15 minutes longer than it should

29000 railcars are mean machines when driven hard and will outrun anything they will make up huge chunks of time, you will get slack with single lines thats always been the way

I keep saying Thurles Dublin 64 minutes flat in the old days was a repeatable time, best time currently is north of 75 minutes and they have trouble making that
