Got stuck at Limerick Junction for 30 minutes earlier. Tried to leave and respawned back where I started.

  3. Why do you think they told you to Keep Behind the Yellow Line? You can never leave its boarder now.

  6. As a Limerick person I would like to point out that Limerick Junction is in fact in Tipperary.

  8. The longest (and the coldest) train platform in Europe. So they say.

  9. You can leave Limerick Junction but it will never leave you.

  13. I don’t understand this post, I’m missing a joke or something about the picture.

  14. Limerick Junction is one of the finest testaments to just how much our government has hated public transport down the years.

    Beyond the myriad of issues, including why is even exists, would it really kill the to put some walls and roofing up for basic shelter? I mean something nicer would be obviously be nicer, but what even just some shitty plastic coverings for €6.7mn from BAM would do *something*. 

  17. You can check out any time you like.

    But you can never leave.

  18. I’ll never understand why people don’t just go inside once they know they’ll be waiting. They have a lil coffee machine, the times are there, the rail people are sound af..

  19. Manulla Junction in Mayo is like this. A platform in the middle of fucking nowhere with no way of leaving it. No roads, no ticket office, nothing but the platform with tracks on each side.

  21. We need to do away with Limerick junction in it current use. We need a direct line from Limerick to Cork, Cork to Waterford, and an improved line from Waterford to Limerick and from Limerick to Galway. (And a lot more)

    The journey times to/from these should be less than two hours to compete with car use

  23. Made an error once in booking a train to Dublin that would have required me to get off at Limerick Junction for a few minutes, just didn’t bother going up that day. I can’t even remember what I was going up for, some team meeting maybe.

    Fuck that, I’m not risking getting trapped there for the rest of time.

  24. This happened to me and my mother at a train station in Brussels. 2 gormless idiots
    roaming around and then accepting our fate that we would be there forever

  25. You’re inside the Event Horizon. The singularity approaches. Time dilation goes stronger as your spiral in. Slowing to a crawl until it proceeds at such an infinitesimal rate that you never, truly are able to reach your final destination.

    Eons hence, when the stars have grown cold and the remnants of the universe is just dark disordered chaos and a few black holes, a spray fragment of Hawking Radiation may spit you from the surface of the hole.

    But what comes out, will no longer ever be recogniseable as who you once where. Possibly. Nobody knows. People have gone mad trying to work it out. A man lost a bet over it.

  26. The in between. The other place.

    **YOU DON’T HAVE TO GO HOME, BUT YOU CAN’T STAY HERE**

  28. “Relax,” said the night man, “We are programmed to receive. You can check out any time you like, but you can never leave”
