[18-12-2007] 07.58 Drogheda - Bray

Rashers · 18-12-2007, 21:12

Arrived as 6 carriages this morning. Left passengers behind at Howth Junction, Malahide, but worst of all Donabate, as they faced a 40 minute wait for the next service, and that only goes 1/2 the distance of the 07.58 service, leading to changes/extra time etc.
Heavily overcrowded on board.
We now have daily carriage shortages on the Drogheda line. What's going on?

IE mess up the timetable and have committed to runnning more trains than they have rolling stock for

Plus they sent a 8 coach out on the Docklands this morning when it should only be 4

With a bit of luck it won't last long

Thanks Mark. Yeh hope things improve. No apologies from the driver(s), but at least we were only a few minutes late getting in.
