Default SAme with Phoenix Park

I noticed this a few mornings with Phoenix Park station - the 0817 ex-Coolmine went through the station at least twice over the past few weeks. The trains were overcrowded (as ever ), but surely that's not the reason? No announcements....

The only other excuse I can think for that is for the Maynooth Timetable of from December 2007 up until January 2008 that service (the 8.17 ex coolmine) was not scheduled to stop at Phoenix Park and that they could be using the wrong times??? (nah can't be right!) (It is scheduled to stop at that station now!!!)

Is it? I read my time table - none of the dates (old or new) in the 2008 timetable indicate it stopping there

The timetable upto 21st january 2008 says it doesn't
The timetable from 21st january 2008 says it does

Should see that in the large timetable book.

Ok this one is strange

Online both the website and pdf say it stops

However the staff timetable says it doesn't nor does the official printed timetable

Usual left hand right hand thing with Irish Rail

We know Irish Rail does not want the 7:58 Maynooth Bray stopping in Phoenix Park given the chronic overcrowding problems however they have got themselves very confused which is not acceptable.
