I've heard that for the Customer Information Displays on the platforms to work on they must be connected to the Main Signalling Control Computer in Connolly. Currently Greystones, Drogheda, Dundalk and the Maynooth Line are not connected to this main signalling computer in Connolly CTC and are instead controlled locally.
I've also heard that due to manning levels and technical issues in CTC Connolly, the displays at these locations will probably not be connected to the main computer and thence the Info Displays until the Suburban re-signalling is completed (DASH Phase 2). So it will be at least a couple of more years before these displays will work properly.
