Bigbro's foray into the scary world of blogging

...have once again screwed up my day. Signalling failure (allegedly) has resulted in the 2033 train leaving Connolly at an untenable 2119. Every Friday evening, Irish Rail habitually and repeatedly screw up the train service. I imagine it's some kind of sadistic game that us passengers are merely pawns in, played ritually by the powers that be in Irish Rail's operations office.
I admire the brass-neckery that allowed the station announcer to announce that the train was running '10 minutes late' when the figure was immediately presented on the board as 22 minutes late - which changed to 'delay' once Irish Rail realised that they couldn't remove their heads far enough from their collective orifices to arrange that a train get from a point A to a point B.
Any suggestions as to why trains in Dublin invariably break every Friday evening? Am I just being paranoid?
