Upgraded to 1st to have quiet, breakfast and a doze. Standard class packed, 1st only a few. BUT - there is a table of four LOUD “shopping women”. Near Portadown, and not one of them has shut up for a millisecond. And they’re right next to me.

Noel Posted November 25, 2023 Share Posted November 25, 2023 My wife had a pleasant trip to Belfast and back yesterday on the Enterprise. She thought it was right up there with the Cork route CAF mk4 coaches for comfort. Up on the 0930 returned on the 1805. Great comfy service. Thankfully Dublin quiet last night on return, as a certain element had crawled back under their rocks. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IrishTrainScenes Posted November 25, 2023 Author Share Posted November 25, 2023 Due to a train fault 16:05 Lanyon Place to Dublin Connolly is being delayed at Lanyon Place and is now expected to be 40 minutes late. Will be formed of 3 coaches. First class not available. Catering is not available. Another failure it seems 13:20 Ex Dublin failed in Belfast so a 3 car NIR CAF set will work the 16:05 Ex Belfast and 19:00 Ex Dublin.
