06:15 from Cork delayed this morning by 3 or 4 minutes because people were still queuing at the booking office. It opens at 6am and I've often seen this happen. I know they want to encourage use of the machines, but causing delays to the train is not the way to do it.
By Limerick Junction, the delay was made back, but as has been the case a lot recently, 10 minutes was lost between Portarlington and Sallins.
BTW Does anyone know what the story is with the speed restriction just on the Charleville side of Buttevant (just after the track crosses the Awbeg river)? It's been there for several months now.
