06-10-06: Water leak dripping on passenger.

Score another hundred points for the disasterous Sligo "service" and the trains that run it, for a mess well made. literally.

I was taking a morning train from Connolly to Longford today, and about 20 minutes after the weather became inclement, a passenger - an older gentleman travelling futher than myself - across the aisle from me began to complain about a leak.

This only happened about 15 minutes before my stop but I think I got enough details for a report.

The leak was intermittent, clear in colour, and started not long after some rain. The flow came from a hole in the bottom of the diagonal panel that connects the wall to the ceiling.

The train was the 08:00 Connolly-Sligo. Coach was 29327. In the centre area on the left hand side. The clothing of the man in question was noticeably affected by the leak.
