Flaws of Metro North Rail Gauge
Flaws of Metro North Rail Gauge I have waited for a transport solution for over fifty years and now on the verge of a solution it’s about to be destroyed again on the width of a rail track or gauge. This problem has arisen be- cause planners in the nineties decided that Ireland should have a different gauge. In the past Ireland used different rail gauges and suffered as a result. Rail disappeared in all areas where they had narrow gauge. Rail gauge is very important. This mistake was made in many countries where governments decided on different gauges to protect their country. Here is a list of some of the problems by using a different rail gauge system for Metro North. 1. Metro serves a small area of Dublin. Most of Dublin and rest of Ireland loose out. 2. Delays transport solution to other areas by decades, even Swords, shorter Metro. 3. Extremely costly. Requires almost a 20 Euro subsidy for each usage. Ensures train fares remain extremely high. Requires costly underground and duplication. 4. All via the centre. Almost all users must go via the centre, unnecessary changing. Example users from Blanchardstown, North Dublin, Dundalk Line and Malahide Dart must go into Connolly Stn. take Luas to O Connell St. for Metro. Repeat for return trip. All other train routes use three rail modes to get to Airport. 5. Undermines the efficiency of bus routes and other rail lines by forcing users into centre to access Metro, using up scarce capacity at peak travel time. 6. Congestion. -
Railway Accident Investigation Unit Annual Report
Railway Accident Investigation Unit Ireland Annual Report i 2018 Foreword The purpose of the Railway Accident Investigation Unit (RAIU) is to independently investigate occurrences on Irish railways with a view to establishing their cause/s and make safety recommendations to prevent their reoccurrence or otherwise improve railway safety. It is not the purpose of an investigation to attribute blame or liability. In 2018, fifty-two preliminary examination reports (PERs) were completed by the RAIU based on reports of incidents and accidents from Transdev and Iarnród Éireann (IÉ); including reports of: rolling stock faults; Road Rail Vehicle (RRV) occurrences; self-harm occurrences; earthworks failures; energy faults; tram and heavy rail derailments in depots; cattle strikes; tram road traffic collisions; fire; buffer stop collisions and one user worked level crossing collision accident. Of the fifty-two PERs, three full investigations into individual incidents/accidents that occurred on the IÉ network, namely: • Collision of an InterCity Railcar with a buffer stop at Laois Train Care Depot, 17th July 2018; • Wrongside Door Failure at Ashtown Station, 12th August 2018; • Vehicle struck by train at Cartron level crossing, XM220, Co. Mayo, 17th August 2018. In addition, a trend investigation into RRV incidents and accidents on the IÉ network was commenced, which includes the review of RRV occurrences from 2015 to 2018, inclusive. One investigation report was published in 2018, ‘Derailment of DART passenger service, at Points DL115, Dun Laoghaire, 13th September 2017’ resulting in a total of seven new safety recommendations being issued. The new recommendations related to: the training and competency of staff in terms of performance of duties and safety critical communications; management of major customer disruptions; the design and fitment of points clips; and, the placement of detonator protection. -

Carol Wade, St
18.247 Swords must not be divided and must be kept united for Council elections Carol Wade, St. Margaret's - Swords submission Dear Committee, My submission is that Swords (Swords-Lissenhall, Swords-Glasmore, Swords-Village, Swords- Seatown, Swords-Forrest - all of Swords and surrounding areas), including the environs of Rolestown, Kilsallaghan and St. Margaret's (electoral divisions of Dubber and Kilsallaghan), is the capital town of Fingal and must remain united within the one Fingal County Council Swords Local Election Area ("LEA"). Fingal towns and their environs must be kept intact as part of any LEA boundary adjustments. Swords, including Rolestown, Kilsallaghan and St. Margaret's, must remain intact as a 7 seat Swords LEA, which is the maximum permitted (reduced from 9). The Dáil Éireann boundaries between Dublin Fingal and Dublin West must be respected and remain aligned with the new LEA's. The parts of west Swords (Rolestown, Kilsallaghan and St. Margaret's) that were correctly moved back to the then new Dáil Éireann Constituency of Dublin Fingal in 2012, must remain part of the Swords LEA and not become disenfranchised as a make-weight within a Dublin West LEA. No part of Swords should be moved to the Howth / Malahide or any other LEA. The logical border between the Swords and Howth / Malahide LEA's should be the M1, with Holywell moving from the Howth / Malahide LEA to the Swords LEA (with the exception of the Melrose estate which is split by the M1 and should remain united in the Howth / Malahide LEA). In summary: Swords (Swords-Lissenhall, Swords-Glasmore, Swords-Village, Swords-Seatown, Swords-Forrest - all of Swords and the surrounding areas), including the environs of Rolestown, Kilsallaghan and St. -
Dublin Enterprise Service Published by Iarnród Éireann (IE) (November 2015)
Proposed Modified Timetable for the Belfast – Dublin Enterprise Service published by Iarnród Éireann (IE) (November 2015) Briefing Note on the IE Timetable Consultation to the Committee for Regional Development prepared by Professor Austin Smyth* 14.03.2016 * Professor Smyth was an employee of NIR and a member of the 1989 joint IE/NIR Task Force established to advance the case for upgrading the Enterprise service. He was joint author of the economic and financial appraisals of the Enterprise programme launched in 1997 reporting to the CEO’s of both IE and NIR. 1. The (November 2015) Irish Rail Draft 2016 Timetable Proposals: A Harbinger of Failure In November 2015 Iarnród Éireann (IE) (Irish Rail) published proposals for a modified timetable for train services into and through Dublin Connolly station. This is the terminal for the Belfast – Dublin Enterprise service. The proposed timetable was issued for public consultation within the Republic of Ireland with a submission deadline of 8th December 2015. The proposed changes to the timetable provide for introduction of fixed interval services for DART services with 3 trains per hour for Howth and Malahide trains with an even interval timing giving 6 trains per hour (10 min headway)between Howth Junction and Dublin Connolly (and beyond). The new timetable incorporates slower run times for most trains as illustrated for peak hour arrivals in Dublin in Table 1. There are likely to be consequences for the number of train sets required with knock on effects on O&M costs. TABLE 1. RUN TIMES FOR TRAINS ARRIVING AT CONNOLLY 07:30-09:30 MF (mins) SEECTION NOW PROPOSED DIFFERENCE Howth Junction – Connolly all stns 15 16 +1 Malahide –Connolly all stns 24/25 25 0/+1 Dundalk etc fast/semi-fast: Malahide - 15-21 17-26 +2-+5 Connolly This additional run time would have the effect of slowing down long distance services in particular, already delayed by stopping trains south of Malahide. -
