I know that I am drifting off topic slightly by referring to the Heuston side of Irish Rail. I find that there is not nearly so much padding on trains to/from Heuston, especially Intercity services, following accelerations in timings a couple of years ago. On Dublin-Cork trains, services operated by Mark4s have virtually no time to spare: the 22ks being much faster to accelerate can however recover some time.

Is there a different management philosophy on the Heuston side, or is it that the infrastructure on the lines out of Connolly has (by comparison) been hopelessly neglected?
