Well I have news the old digital clocks in Heuston disappeared a few months ago, only a year or so after I pointed out the fact they where not synchronised.

Digital clocks are coming, all stations Cork Dublin are supposed to get DART style information displays

There is a digital clock on the radio in the cab, so the driver has a clock, The internal timetable issued to staff goes to half minute resolution which doesn't help. There seems to be significant varience between the published timetable and the online one when it comes to arrive and departure times

Clock sychronisation is trivial, the displays seem to be run off a standard computer and the one in Pearse is spot on to the second against the ntp time on my computer, I just checked. Every staffed station on the network is hooked up (or will be) to the internal IE computer network.

Displays if installed between Dublin and Cork will work just fine, the ones in Adamstown do seem to work
