Why is nothing leaving Hueston?

pixiebean22 · 10-11-2010, 18:44

Because there is a drunk woman on platform 6 causing a nuisance I assumee.

Or maybe it's just because this is irish rail at it's very best.

The 6pm to cork left at 6.46.

The 6.35 to waterford, the 6.40 to thurles and the 6.30 westport service all still sitting here. No announcement.

Depending on what you can see from your device, does the situation on the ground agree with this page: http://www.irishrail.ie/your_journey/results.asp

Westport train left at 6.51.

Thurles and waterford train still sitting here.

Static filled announcement just made to say we're sorry for the delay, we'll be on our way shortly, delay due to all trains leaving late. So informative.

Waterford train left at 6.57. Presume the thurles train will be about 5 minutes after

Colm, can't get into that link on my mobile.

Not to worry. I'm guessing at some sort of signaling fault as trains aren't showing properly on the RealTime system.

Yep, on the Waterford train too, another announcement after we left telling us we are 15 mins late.....even though we are actually 25+ mns late, must be 'irish rail time'!! Useless articles

I must be in the other set of cars as we got no announcement about being 15 minutes late when we're really 25 minutes late.

I'm looking forward to the various random delays along the way tonight, should be in waterford around half 9 if i'm lucky!
