Ah what is it about the changing of the seasons that almost guarantees rails delays!
17.05 Train to Limerick from Heuston went wallop yesterday, however it took nearly an hour before the decision was taken to allow the 17.10 to push the Limerick train into the siding at hazelhatch. The train I was on the 5.55 left at 6.14, as the tanoys on that service are on a long term casulaty list it was up to a the ticket checker to make an announcement - however he knew very little. In fairness to management once they were contacted by NRG they did provide the information as to the cause of the delay and advise when the service was restored. My point in all of this is that management of situations like this does not appear to be improving.
God help us when something like this occurs during contruction of the Kildare Route Project, sorry I meant the Outer Dublin Project or was that the Hazelhatch Project!!!

PS I should alose mention that once we left we stop at Inchicore for an hour, so we were over an hour delayed getting home, those on earlier services even more so. Any idea if refunds are available for this type of delay and if so can annual ticket holders avail of this???
