The railway safety commission is looking into this as well following a complaint from us
They tend to get things sorted quickly
Advice here is simple, travel in the front coach, and tell driver at next stop, he has access to the trip switch
It is unacceptable and we have made that very clear in our press release, which did reach the Irish Times
Sadly don't know anyone in the depot in Portlaoise so we can't get an inside line. For reference I've spoken to a senior driver recently and he knew nothing about this problem despite driving ICR's all day
