Public Address Overkill

Ever since the six car sets came on stream the 08:35 ex Hazelhatch and the 18:35 Thurles train, my usual two, have become more reliable. Credit where credit is due.

However, the trade off has been the incredibly verbose and in two languages PA announcements. Station names, in Irish and then English. Ridiculously complicated announcements in both languages that take us from Inchicore works to the throat at Heuston. Dear oh God. Monday I'm taking the walkman with me.
