This morning and earlier in the week. Whilst waiting for the Docklands train, the train driver of the 7:46 Clonsilla to Connolly pulled up to the station listening to a walkman whilst driving the train.

Once everybody had boarded the train he pulled out of the station still listening to the walkman. I assume listening to a walkman whilst driving a train is not allowed as it poses a massive saftey risk.

Can anybody confirm that listening to a walkman whilst driviing a train is prohibited?

Whom would I e-mail in Irish Rail to complain about this?.
