Was on the 0900 Dublin Cork on Tuesday we were running a little late by Mallow and a number of passengers bound for Fota and Cobh for the day were worried about making theyre connection at cork. So they ask the guard/train manager/random member of staff in nice new blue uniform if he can get the Conh train held at cork for them. Staff member duly rang Kent station but his request was denied. What was interesting though was what he said afterwards. "id ask the driver to speed up a bit but because of industrial relations issues im not allowed do so".
Any thoughts anyone?
