Full board of red, everyone was quick to blame hourly service to Belfast, new timetable
Its poor operational discipline and a lack of focus on operating to time, first trains of the days continue to be delayed for random reasons and that carries over
Great to share our research findings. I hope it assists in future policy formulation and discussions. Thank you for the invitation. @hea_irl @U_G_G_R_O @AdaptCentre@DigitalPolicyIE
