The information carried on Morning Ireland this morning re problems on the railway did not tell the full story.
There was no mention of the cancellation of the early morning train from Tralee to Mallow this morning – the Dublin mind-set! I had to travel from Tralee to Mallow by bus, departing Tralee at 05.25. There was no driver for the 05.25 ex Tralee.
From what I know from talking to drivers, some months ago Irish Rail was in discussion with its drivers re new rosters. And during those talks the company introduced a new timetable with new ‘links’ and never a word to the drivers.
For months there has been confusion over the early Sunday morning service ex Tralee. There have been occasions when the train departed earlier than published on the public timetable.
Irish Rail published a special Easter timetable and not a mention of trains to or from Tralee on Easter Sunday.
Check the timetable and spot the phantom trains that run between Millstreet and Mallow. The trains don’t exist.
It's a shame the drivers don't have an articulate dedicated PR person to speak on their behalf.
