On train information and the lack thereof, post your experience

Starting from July 21st the 15:55 called at Drumcondra no idea why but the platform display should be able to handle that

It should say non stop to Maynooth then all stations to Sligo, the legal position on this is it is your responsibility to ensure you are on the right train, now given IE have given clear and unambiguous notice (incorrectly of course) of the stations called at you could have some serious fun since you have taken reasonable precautions its not as if you are standing on the wrong platform

Problem is will you meet a like minded judge? As I keep saying IE have a great get out of jail card since they have adopted the UK accessibilty rules but they are not enforceable. Maximum penalty in the UK is 10% of turnover of the business unit where they persist with knowingly displaying incorrect information
