# Whitman says Dublin Mean Time was -0:25:21, which is more precise than Shanks.

+# Clive Feather (<news:859845706.26043.0@office.demon.net>, 1997-03-31)
+# reports that Cheriton Shuttle Terminal uses Concession Time (CT),

+# Julian Hill (<news:36118128.5A14@virgin.net>, 1998-09-30) reports that
+# trains between Dollands Moor (the freight facility just outside Cheriton)
+# and Frethun run in CT.
+# My admittedly uninformed guess is that the terminal has two authorities,
+# the French concession operators and the British civil authorities,
+# and that the time depends on who you're talking to.
+# If, say, the British police were called to the station for some reason,
+# I would expect the official police report to use GMT/BST and not CET/CEST.
+# This is a borderline case, but for now let's stick to GMT/BST for Cheriton.
