They probably need 1000mm of rain to fall on it without it leaking before it can be released for passenger service.

The cis screens have been turned on on both platforns at maynooth, louisa bridge, confey and ashtown. They "iarnrod eireann display not in use"

Clonsilla is not yet turned on and i didnt see if coolmine and castleknock were either.

Both coolmine and castleknock have got new shelters that are larger and wider and they have also got new station signage (white font on black background) and the cis screens have been turned on. Saying "iarnrod eireann display not in use"

Clonsilla is now the only station now with the cis screens still to be turned on.

Noticed this this morning in Maynooth. I thought to myself: if the displays are not in use, why am I reading it on the display?

Display is easy, its finding out where the train is which is the problem

The signaling on the Maynooth line isn't joined up fully so it knows where a train is but it doesn't have the trains itinerary

That will come when the trains are all wifi fitted as that includes GPS.

On single track routes the signaling system doesn't have a precise location on a train when it is between stations, so GPS is the only solution there
