The half hourly service to Greystones (for which demand is not there, 45 minutes maybe) is implemented by having a second train it appears, the second departing immediately after the firsts arrival. The 33 minute turnaround allows for a drivers 30 minute break so should reduce staff change delays
I can see this going badly wrong as it requires a level of precision unheard of from IE. Now what happens if a train is 10 minutes late into Bray, it can either delay the next Greystones train by 7 minutes or sit in Bray for a further 7 minutes while a train comes up from Greystones and arrive 17 minutes late.
