Last time I checked, trains having their exams when they're suppose to is not an optional extra.

It could well be the case that the set has to go to Portlaoise for an exam, while the set on the 17:35 isn't available.

That is perfectly possible without it being an "excuse".
I don't want to keep going on about it but:

Set rosters are changed very regularly. You often see changes every 2 months to match supply and demand. You should see some changes in the next few weeks to cater for student traffic. Everything can be done if people want it to be done. Its irrelevant now anyway so hopefully the service delivers on Saturdays particularly.

My job involves maintenance and its a much larger company than Irish Rail and efficiency is at the heart of it. If they were running IE it would be profitable and deliver a service at the same time.
