18:50 - Limerick Junction - Waterford will be delayed as a result.

I was on the 13:20 today and we departed 17 minutes late. The reason was that the 13:00 to Cork had being delayed due to train failure in Heuston and passengers were transfered onto another train. It departed at 13:34. Why couldn't the 13:20 depart on time. There was no reason to delay it at all.

This is something I don't understand about IE. In general if the 6 o'clock Cork train is significantly delayed in the evening this has a knock on effect to the departure of the Westport, Waterford and Thurles trains. In general I have always seen the Portlaoise and Newbridge trains (which depart at 18.05 and 18.10, respectively) leave on time but for some reason they always delay the 3 trains at 6.30, 6.35 and 6.40.
