12:30 reached Dublin a few minutes ago, it operated as a C3k

Looking at a least 20 minutes delay on the 15:20 going north, but since it runs non stop to Dundalk it should claw back a lot of that when it faces the hills

I didn't get a chance to report at the time, but a couple of weeks ago the morning service out of Dublin was operated by the Sligo Mk2s, which turned into the Gatwicks pulled by 8113 in the evening.

what is the state of the DDs, are they going to be replaced,refurbed?. There seems to be a high amount of failures for a premier line

What are the problems?
Failing locos due to HEP demands?
or some glitch with the coaches?
