Online 'real-time' system fixed?

Mark Gleeson · 05-03-2007, 15:25

To be fair it seems to work reasonably well at times but it has a number of big issues

1. If things go pear shaped and CTC go to manual routing of trains, eg when the line is closed between two stations, the online thing continues as if nothing is wrong

2. If the train is sitting in the platform waiting to go, eg Howth,Bray, Malahide its not shown even though it could have 10+ minutes before departure

3. If a train is cancelled its shown as running on time

4. The invisible trains I spotted no fewer than 5 on Sunday these invisable trains don't exist in any timetable only in the dream world of the webpage
