Victor: the first 4 on your list are departures: I think they are generally shown as having departed on time, and if something like "minus x minutes" appears, it means that scheduled departure was x minutes ago. What use that is, I don't know!

But it's the arrivals that are truly scandalous: 30 minutes late is by no means exceptional and that with a padded timetable. Are IE operations falling apart?

The estimates for Heuston and Cork are based on what time the train passes Cherryville Junc and Rathpeacon, they don't account for the 10-15 minutes padding before arrival, you can pass Cherryville 15 minutes late and make Heuston on time
