The 1520 Dublin/Belfast apparently failed on arrival in Drogheda at 1555 this afternoon. The unfortunate passengers reportedly had to wait until around 1745 before being stuffed onto the already overfull 1650 to Belfast. The 1650 itself was running about 20 minutes late due to an issue with the preceding 1555 Bray/Howth DART.

How can it be that Irish Rail's cannot rustle up even a suburban railcar at one of their principal depot locations. Really hard to see a prosperous future for such a dismal service.
