[article] Rail user group concerned about DART overcrowding - Page 4

going back to the Dart discussion...

In other countries they tell you on the station displays if a train is going to be short. I've seen IE trialling something similar on the new displays in Pearse (some months back, around the same time they initially put up the stop boards) but these new displays (with white LEDs) are now permanently switched off...

the train I generally get in the evenings, the 17.40 to Wexford, consistently ignores the stop boards and always pulls to the end of the platform (its generally a 4-car commuter or occasionally a 3-car intercity).
