After the bum incident on a mrk3 on Friday have to report that yesterday the 1100 Templemore Hesuton was perfecto, including lots of announcements and aplogies for getting held up outside Ballybrophy for engineering works. You'd be insterested to know, Seamus, that although we were told we'd be 20 mins late by the Guard on the train we were only 10 mins late on arrival.

On the way back got the 1835 Commuter to Thurles and have to say it was fairly packed to Kildare, light enough afterwards but very very plesent, all the windows were open (twas the mark3 push-pull) and very comfy on a fine sunny evening, the only drawback being the wait for the 1900 Cork train in Ballrybrophy which turns it into a two hour trip home, not bad on a night like last night, fairly crappy during the Winter.
