So the DART suffers a partial shutdown for about 3 hours due to what is normally deemed a major fault, allowing for the time to get on site fairly impressive turnaround

The boys in the RPA, Connex and Alstom need to take note, 6 hours shutdown over a single tram failure isn't acceptable

You got to accept things will break but the response should be prompt, so thumbs up to IE for today quick fix to a tricky fault. Major thumbs down to the RPA, Connex and Alstom much simpler problem very poorly handled
