Got to O'Connell street this morning at 7:30 on my way to Tara. Just heard it on the radio and turned on my heels to get the 7 to Blackrock. Driver did not accept my rail ticket. I persisted, and brought up the Irish Rail website on my phone and he allowed me on.
Which brings an interesting question. I find Dublin Bus complicated, and unless you know the routes, its very difficult to sort out. Would it be possible to have signs on standby at all the stations, which could list all other stations and which buses to use to get there in Such times. For example, in Clontarf Road, you could have a sign saying:
City Center: 130
Grand Canal: 130 + 2
Lansdowne: 130 + 7
etc etc.
