Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport

All-Island Strategic Rail Review: Iarnród Éireann

2:00 am

Mr. Barry Kenny:

They were unrelated. The second issue was a power supply issue locally that affected the signalling. We are dealing with a legacy system on the Maynooth line pending the DART+ upgrades. We have put the maintenance regime there to sustain that and, obviously, we are as anxious as anybody to replace it. There was a permanent fix put in for that initial fault on the first issue the Deputy described but the second issue concerned the power supply and was unrelated. I appreciate that, with them being so close together, they did impact customer confidence at that time.
