Amazing we can find 2million for a one off private ticket only event but can’t fund catering
2 million would provide catering on all routes missing it for 1 year
After a decade of waiting Irish Rail finally accepts PayPal for online ticket sales and reservations opening up a wide range of payment options
Major change at Galway from this morning

Will they do the same with the 2340 empty from Connolly to Drogheda....
After 2 years of running an out of service train from Drogheda to Dublin each morning passenger are finally going to be allowed onboard

0720 has departed Howth on time, despite Irish Rail's update that it would start from Connolly
0542 Greystones Howth broke down at Killiney
0720 Howth Greystones will hopefully start from Connolly 0745
No one in Irish Rail has bothered to update the real time records so both trains are still showing as running in full. There is a way to flag a cancelled train but depends on who is on duty
Luas Finglas is go, legal challenges have either been struck out or a variation agreed.
