IE have removed the table and replaced it with a narrow ledge on the original table mounts. Clearly it's for greater accessibility, but these seats are sold as normal on the booking system. I booked them recently - had to move seats as a result as i couldn't use my laptop.
That's them, you can see where the full size table was removed from the wall.
Bit silly having them near the socket point where laptop users want to sit.

The announcement of a connecting service to Banteer, Killarney etc. is still on the 21:00 train.

At least this time the train manager corrected it.

How hard would it be to fix the announcement?

Also, I know it's been discussed about improving speeds through Portarlington and Limerick Junction, but how hard would it be to improve things between Heuston and Inchicore? That stretch also seriously delays the train.

comcor - that's what Kildare Route Project is supposed to do - segregate intercity from suburban to prevent delays.

But there wouldn't have been any suburban running to cause problems for the 21:00.

I assumed it was because of speed restrictions across all the points etc. in the Heuston yard.

comcor - good point. Train movements to Inchicore for service maybe?
