Yes it was done in a hurry. The 201 class locomotives are also outside spec on track forces which isn't helping

Hmm, sounds like specifications aren't one of Irish Rail's strong points. I'm begining to wonder what their strong points actually are?!
I suppose, it's not surprising given the fact that in lots of places the trains are the wrong height for the platforms and you'd nearly need to be a poll vaulter to get into the train at Cork's Kent Station the gap's so big... and an endless list of specification and project management related errors that are visible throughout the 'system'.
