The 10:30, originally scheduled to leave Mallow at 10:50 left at 11:15. Not too bad over all I guess.

Mark Gleeson · 23-05-2008, 10:54

10:30 is meant to leave at 10:52.

Very much doubt it will be more than 10 minutes late into Dublin

TheBoss · 23-05-2008, 11:13

Update

Quote:

Cork, Kerry, Galway, Westport & Athlone area service disruptions, Friday 23rd May, industrial action by Corporate Communications

UPDATE: 11.40hrs, Friday 23rd May

Iarnród Éireann advises customers that a refusal by drivers based in Cork to work their normal rosters is causing significant disruption to rail services in the Cork & Kerry areas.

The stoppage by drivers commenced following a refusal by a Cork-based driver to drive his train within his core roster on Thursday, to facilitate training of new trainee drivers.

In addition, services from Galway, Westport and Athlone are also affected today.

Full updated service information will be available on this webpage.

Iarnród Éireann apologises to customers for the inconvenience caused.

I'm told Today FM lunchtime news at 12:45 could be interesting

I presume Limerick trains via Limerick Jct are affected as well. Or are the bus transfers from Dublin\Mallow stopping at the Jct to drop passengers off to get train to\from Limerick?

Mark Gleeson · 23-05-2008, 12:00

All services Dublin Limerick direct are running

Where a train runs Mallow Dublin or Dublin Mallow the usual connection at Limerick junction is still there

14:00, 15:00, 16:00 and 17:00 Dublin Cork are running only to Mallow, connections at Limerick Junction still in place

17:30, 18:30, 19:30 and 20:30 Cork Dublin run and make the usual connections, but require a bus from Cork to Mallow and may be 10-15 minutes late as a result

Anyone on a cancelled Dublin Cork train looking for Limerick will be stuck on the next Limerick direct service. 13:25, 15:25, 17:05 and 17:25, I wouldn't be surprised if Cork passengers where brought to Thurles by rail first and bus on
