Darrman Posted October 19, 2023 Share Posted October 19, 2023 I'm going on a holiday to the North next Friday and I have Enterprise tickets booked. Is the Enterprise always this unreliable?

However I suspect the chances of getting a 22k (which isint too bad) are high but if there is a delay due to a failure is the real killer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also sometimes Irish Rail use 29000s on this service (Nothing against these) but I do find them better than nothing for substitutions.

IrishTrainScenes Posted October 22, 2023 Author Share Posted October 22, 2023 The 1105 ex Belfast & 1400 ex Dublin are a 6 car CAF, possibly 3002+3005. Also, looks like the 1200 ex Dublin will be an Irish Rail set due to the fact that the 0900 ex Belfast (failed) in Belfast and is almost 1hr 40m late.
