Is it possible to be late

[Mark Gleeson]

As many will know the Cork train is a strange beast

Last three journeys have all managed to get in early, todays one was the best given the circumstances

20 minutes early (must be the all time record)
15 minutes early (had to wait 5 minutes at the first stop to depart since it was early arriving)
6 minutes early despite 2 extra stops en route and poor weather and an arrival Heuston on the tail end of the rush hour

And this is with the route littered with temporary speed restrictions

Had I known I was going to get in 15 minutes early I could have had my meeting 15 minutes earlier and then I would have actually planned for an earlier train, saving me an hour.

Has the crazy padding gone too far?
