Surely getting buses wasn't the issue but rather the determination to avoid evacuating passengers onto the track irrespective of the ongoing delay. I understand the train was quite close to an accommodation crossing at Carrignagat and could have been fairly easily unloaded.

While evacuating track-side mightn't be ideal it is infinitely preferable to imprisoning passengers for 4½ hours !

Hard to see why the 1600 is being cancelled on an ongoing basis, probably operationally convenient but not acceptable from a customer service point of view. A truly dreadful week on the Sligo line.
