![]() May well be related to that, but the system used must play a part as well, 95% of the time the system on the 8100 trains works when in my experience on the 86xx it's about 25% of the time.

![]() The equipment is just fine, as with everything with Irish Rail its a lack of attention to detail
1. Not setup correctly by driver 2. Failure to load the current timetable 3. Failure to maintain, test and repair, its not safety requirement so is last on the list Much has people like the Siemens PIS system, one of the systems on the LHB sets was on V36 of the software before approval, its a simple end to end all stations route. The PIS on the third batch of Tokyu car units is solid as well.

![]() Has anyone pestered them on specifics on the timetable?
I had similar with Bus Éireann, where they changed the route of their 220 bus through Carrigaline, meaning the Real Time app kept showing it arriving at my nearest stop in 8 minutes, over a period of 10 mins, before finally coming down. Once I complained, it was fixed within a week. |

![]() I reported an issue with 29Ks announcing Longford as they passed the signal coming into Edgeworthstown more than 12 years ago. I haven't been down on a 29K for a couple of years but they were still doing it two years ago.
The 22Ks seem to work pretty well on Sligo although once I saw the distance to Dromad increase all the way from Carrick to Dromad. It reset itself at Dromad. |

One time when I was traveling the pa been 15km out of sink actually resulted in Real Time Data feeding onto the app/website south of Athy. Only works on up trains otherwise. Last edited by Jamie2k9 : 25-01-2017 at 22:04. |

![]() There are certainly some people who switch of the PA.
I used to ride up in the front carriage on a DART that had a driver change at Clontarf quite regularly and whenever there was one particular driver who got on the train, the PIS was always turned off after the change. Could be many different units, but if that driver came on, without fail the unit would have its systems turned off. Either that or it goes off when last driver signs out and he doesnt' sign it back it. I have seen Dublin Bus drivers do the same who do not like the stop announcements, they are not supposed to be able to do it but a few drivers know how to. |

![]() Do you know any more about this? It may be why buses don't show up on the RTPI signs.

![]() All I will say is the stop announcements need to know where the bus is, like the RTPI does.

![]() If someone sees this happening again, the specific date and time would be very helpful as we will then know the train ID, the unit numbers and by extension the roster will know who was driving
