Latest from our favourite website under General News:
Item 1: Sunday morning trains to Dublin from Cork, Kerry and Limerick SOLD OUT
Item 2: Travelling to Croke Park? Get there by public transport.

OK: I know that item 2 does not directly contradict item 1, but it looks a bit odd, and highlights the question about the failure to run any specials on a Sunday morning (just because they have 15 trains each weekday does it mean they see no need for specials at wekends?)

Mark Gleeson 09-02-2007 12:34

The 'sold out' line is actually false, its that the 170 odd reserved seats are booked but the other 230 are still available on a first come first served basis

Last time this happened I boarded such a train in Thurles for Dublin and sat in the last coach with about 20 other people in complete contradiction of the notice

There is no reason why hourly on Sunday morning cannot be provided

Mark Gleeson 09-02-2007 12:59

So get how pointless this is

The IE newsletter arrived in my inbox 12:56 telling me the trains are booked out, what use is that??

IE haven't bothered to put the extra commuter trains in the online timetable

And the trains which are sold out actually are not sold out since IE have sold less than half the seats

Mark Gleeson 09-02-2007 19:25

Here we go again, there now are 4 notices about more or less the same thing on the IE site

Note there is no notice of this 19:15 train, its not in the sports specials section

Its a total balls up, trains sitting idle all over the place and IE manage one intercity special

General News

Rail Travel from Galway to Dublin Sunday 11th Feb by Corporate Communications

Due to very heavy demand the Regular 08.25hrs Morning Train to Dublin from Co. Galway Stations on Sunday morning is now completely SOLD OUT.

Iarnrod Éireann wishes to advise people travelling that they will not be able to board this train unless they are in possession of an advance purchased ticket.


There is a limited number of seats still available for travel outwards on Saturday and return on the 19.15hrs Special train from Heuston to Galway on Sunday evening. Tickets can be purchased on this website.

Followers are asked to co-operate with Iarnrod Éireann by availing of alternative transport if they are unable to get a train ticket.

Iarnrod Eireann regret any inconvenience this may cause.

And again and this is at the IE end

Gateway Timeout
The firewall did not receive a timely and complete response from the upstream server it accessed in attempting to complete the request. This may be due to one or more of the following:

* An incorrectly formatted response from the web server,
* the web server suddenly became unavailable,
* an overly congested network link between the web server and the firewall, or
* extraordinarily high latency between the web server and the firewall.


The request seen by the firewall was:

It gets better

Man these guys are really asking for it

Todays bug

Put in Dublin and any other station into the journey planner, you get

No services available within the specified time period

Put Heuston/Connolly/Pearse in and it works
