I've been using the ticket machines daily for the last month at Charlemont.
I have to reiterate..
These machines [ and it's nothing to do with Charlemont, all the Luas machines are the same ]
are brutal.
1: 10-15 seconds for a ticket.
2: touch screen requires repeated tapping to register
3: inserting coins quickly just does not work , one will nearly always be rejected.
4: no "most popular ticket"/1-button ticket options always tap,tap,tap. I swear I feel like the raven in one of Poe's books sometimes.
look at the queues at the Green and Sandyford at peak hours. Why RPA don't get better and more machines at either of these locations beggars belief.... those kind of queues can be dangerous.
