This is all but too typical of the Rosslare line
Irish Rail hide any delay or cancellation safe in the knowledge that few people actually know it happened, we rely on people posting experiences. If it was a DART issue we kinda notice the lack of a rumble on the bridge outside.
Its hard to know if the driver did know before reaching Gorey bar the Rosslare train was late since they pass in Arklow. There is an ongoing issue with staff not being upfront with important information. The only train to fail was the 7:40 from Rosslare, your train was used to fill in for it back to Dublin.
Looks like you where close to a hour late so

The rather ancient locomotives and coaches never gave this much trouble, Rosslare line is known as a railcar killer, the commuter railcars are just not designed for it.
