Default on a side note......

According to the Irish Rail website:

Hazelhatch station

Buses From Station: Yes
I suppose it is correct but it would be helpful if they said only at peak times

And Howth Junction and Donaghmede

older viewers will recall my fun times with the bus service (occasionally consisting of the contractors wife in her car) in the hatch. I hope that is not still the norm.

as for aerDART, well..... we all know what happened there. its nice to see IE fondly remember them though.

Broombridge is the clear winner, it doesn't even have a presentation.

If we're voting for the most OTT station, Cherry Orchard and Clondalkin vie for that neck and neck. From it's construction, you'd swear it was built to accommodate 15,000 people in transit at any one time, unlike the 5 or 6 that use it to get on and off.
