Some good news for passengers at least.
The Dept of Transport need to step out of their policy vacuum in Merrion Row and actually start formulation proper service level agreements with Irish Rail.
If a service does not, subvention for that is not paid, simple as.
They should start asking questions about the constant bolshie activity in Cork.
They have to go beyond the usual "internal matter for Irish Rail etc" that they've conveniently used over the years.
Irish Rail management need to be completely removed from the negotiations as we have had two years of going round in circles. If the labour court make recommendations, then
both sides need to stick to it.
As for the announcments on Thursday, i've woken up enough times in the past to find that no trains were running.
