But what do we know, eh?
Actually if you read the rpa's annual report for 2005 supplement,

"http://www.rpa.ie/upload/documents/RPA%202005%20Annual%20Report%20Supplement.pdf"

page 4 states

"Responding to high passenger demand, additional peak period services were introduced between Heuston and Connolly on the red line"


This is repeated again on page 5 of the same document.
Yet a quick perusal of the Luas.ie websites, timetables inparticular show no mention of this shuttle.

This is strange. I mean why wouldn't they advertise thee extra services they are running? It's bizarre. you'ld almost think they aren't running and the rpa are sublty mistaken or mayhaps the rubbish company are breaking their service agreement with the rpa.

You are right Thomas,
What do we know?
