Default Sundays - 18.05 Waterford - Heuston

Have had to start using the service over the last few weeks. For the last two weeks the train has many mechanical faults

Sun 2 Oct - 6 car with first class.
After left Waterford train went down to 4 engines from 5. Were crawling all the way to Thomastown and when it stopped all power on train was lost. Engines could not be started for about 15 mins. Further problems in Kilkenny.

Sun 10 Oct - 6 car no first class.
Mechanical fault between Waterford - Thomastown. All power lost in Kilkenny twice. After we left Kilkenny the whole train went into darkness for about 10 mins before engines were started again. Trolley had no hot water because what ever they use on the train wasn't working.

No communication form driver both weeks at all. When would be the last time the trains would get seen to.
