On train information and the lack thereof, post your experience

Today's train stopped at Geashill (about half way between Tullamore and Portarlington) to let the forrestry train by.

Over the PA there was an announcement for Portarlington. He then must have realised his mistake, and announced "We are now approaching Portarlington, in about 10 minutes." Then he said it again a little while later.

Bizarre. Could he have been having a little snooze and did he wake up when the train started stopping? It was a "slam door" drain so I wonder did anyone hop out on the bit of old platform thinking that Portarlington was getting a bit run down.
