I was in early today - accidentally of course - arrived Mullingar 7.15 or so for my normal 7.26 departure only to see the earlier 'Pearse Station' train just arriving.

Lots of puzzled faces around, some got on, some didnt. I did as I assumed there would be a knock on effect to the trains behind it. It was like a ghost train until Maynooth and we passed empty platforms in places. However after that it was standing all the way for lots.

Lots of grumbles when a belated apology arrived (just as we got to Connolly) and also announced the train not going to Pearse after all but was now being terminated in Connolly.
