9 min From Arklow to Gorey is about average. The amount of time allowed between stations is in my opinion is excessive. A recent trip on the 0600 Gorey to Sligo train saw us sitting in most stations 3 to 4 min waiting time.
6 min sitting in Blackrock as the train is allowed 9 min to complete the journey from Dunlaoghaire to Blackrock. Even a stopping DART doesnt take that long.
The 0600 train could depart Gorey at 0615 and still easily arrive into Dublin Connolly before 0800. Its no wonder that as the poster says "97% of commuter trains arrive on time". I mean with timetables like this how could they not arrive on time?.
