@ChrisHewittLFC S’alright. They’ll have Hove Albion there to help.

@TFIupdates I’m on 16.50 41x. Driver driving weirdly - coasting really slowly up to traffic lights and has now taken wrong route in town.
Didn’t go via stop 790 but drove into Ely Place. Have had this driver before. Hasn’t a clue.

[Mel Fleming @melvinfleming]

@TFIupdates @dublinbusnews The 07.30 41x was late again. This service is consistently late. Didn’t get to stop 5028 until 07.42.
What was the point in changing the timetable?? Driver seems to want to stick with the old start time of 07.35. This isn’t a once off. It’s frequent

[Mel Fleming @melvinfleming]

@dublinbusnews @TFIupdates The 07.40 41x didn’t get to stop 5028 until 07.55 this morning
The 07.30 was late on Tuesday. Can you please inform the depot? These late departures are negating any improvements brought in by the new timetable. Way it’s going it’s like nothing changed

[Mel Fleming @melvinfleming]

@TFIupdates @dublinbusnews It eventually ran. Driver held up getting to UCD. But with the cancellation of the 17.05 as well it’s not great

[Mel Fleming @melvinfleming]

@dublinbusnews @TFIupdates is the 17.20 41x running? At stop 768

[Mel Fleming @melvinfleming]

@TFIupdates @dublinbusnews It did not come. Also the 17.05 was cancelled

[Mel Fleming @melvinfleming]

@dublinbusnews @TFIupdates The new 07.30 41x has been a few minutes late the past two mornings. This has the effect of almost negating the improvement in the timetable. Traffic not an excuse as it is v light and bus not full. Stop 5028

[Mel Fleming @melvinfleming]

@TFIupdates And now he has missed the Airport exit. This has been a disaster

[Mel Fleming @melvinfleming]

@TFIupdates I am on the 17.15 41x. Different driver to usual. It’s like he doesn’t know how to drive. Absolute snails pace even though traffic light. Stopping at stops he’s not supposed to. Getting penned in the wrong lane. Only at Stephen Green now 28 mins after leaving UCD.

[Mel Fleming @melvinfleming]

@TFIupdates Customs House at 18.05. Light traffic. It’s the driver

[Mel Fleming @melvinfleming]

@TFIupdates Now on Westland Row at 17.56. Stuck in inside lane and not using outside lane like every other bus driver. We are waaaay behind schedule in light traffic

[Mel Fleming @melvinfleming]

@TFIupdates @dublinbusnews I presume you mean traffic from garage to first stop on route? This has been an issue many times in the past. I raised it before that drivers are not allowing enough time to get to first stop. Also we are NOT back on schedule. Not close.

[Mel Fleming @melvinfleming]

@dublinbusnews @@TFIupdates Did the 07.35 41x depart late this morning? It was about five minutes late getting to stop 5028.

[Mel Fleming @melvinfleming]

@TFIupdates Sorry. Not what I asked. I mean how does one interpret it when a service says cancelled for the first several stops but is still giving times for subsequent stops

[Mel Fleming @melvinfleming]

@TFIupdates Hi there, can you explain what to expect when I see this on the real time info? Is the service running or not? 41c.

[Mel Fleming @melvinfleming]

@johngibbonsblog Premier Inn Earl’s Court or Olympia. Both near Kensington so great for the museums and tube to Covent Garden, Leicester Sq etc.

@MickPuck Lonesome Dove is one of my favourite novels ever. Must give Streets a go.
