![]() The normally nearly-full 6-car 18:05 to Portlaoise was run as a 3-car today which meant many people standing to Hazelhatch. It also left from platform 7 rather than 2/3/4 so perhaps it was yet another substitution.
Hopefully this is not a permanent change. |

![]() The 18:00 Cork train made additional stops at Kildare, Portarlington and Portlaoise. Train arrived in Kildare around 6:33pm. It was nice to get home earlier than normal. The 18:05 is becoming very unreliable.

![]() Missed that announcement! Since the 1805 was down at P7 there was no time for checking for alternatives.
So it looks like a substitution for yet another failed 18:05. The 18:05 used to be a very reliable service. Wonder why it's getting worse? Since it's going to Portlaoise, are they gathering the most troublesome units for a one-way trip? |

![]() The 0720 Portlaoise - Heuston was cancelled this morning (22nd). The 0610 ex Waterford made additional stops at Sallins, Hazelhatch (passengers on wrong platform) and Admastown and was packed by then.
