Changes to train timetables coming end of August

Inbound terminating at Connolly is becoming more common because of congestion over the river. It should mean that it's not too hard to change to a DART.

How's the second set of changes been so far? I'm off all this week so trying to figure out what to expect when I'm back in the office. Following IR on Twitter doesn't instill too much confidence tbh.

Extremely unlucky

Anyone know the reasoning why Broombridge doesn't have a live timetable of expected trains in either direction like (I think) all other stations along the Maynooth line? For instance there are expected Luas times and intervals posted on the adjacent tracks but nothing for the train line so very annoying getting off a Luas to be unaware of the wait time without having to resort to looking up the Irish Rail website.

I emailed info@nationaltransport.ie to ask for an extra Leap card tag scanner between train and Luas. There's always a queue at the single scanner for those changing from train to Luas.

You could email the same email address to ask for them. Maybe with most people having smart phones they figure they can look up the Irish Rail website - sure what else do you have to be doing while waiting :-)

Train late this morning, Sign on platform times not updating. Train home 3 carriages and rammed.

I don't really expect a train on time theses days. I just go knowing the longest I'll have to wait is 20-30 mins.

There is actually 2 scanners for the train, but a lot of people seem unaware of the second one. In the evenings heading west, the one with the long queue is the one beside the Irish Rail ticket machine, at the end where the 40E bus-stop is. There's a second one down the other end, about 20 metres before the lifts. (But obviously no reason why they couldn't put a third in).

Yes, those two. I'll call them East and West. I can see how East would be the more useful in the mornings after you come down the stairs after exiting the train. West would be a chore.
Though in the evenings after people get off the Luas they seem to just use West and largely ignore East.
Unfortunately if you emailed complaining there's only a 'single scanner' then they may just file it as an incorrect complaint.

edit :

Actually not sure your Xs are correct. There is definitely one at the tag on your map labelled 'Luas Green Line'. So is there actually three in total? I'll look tomorrow.
