Iarnród Éireann has advised DART customers that due to unofficial industrial action by some DART drivers, some DART services this afternoon and evening face cancellation. However, the vast majority of DART services are continuing to operate.

The unofficial action arises from a disagreement between two groups of DART drivers on a rostering issue, and involves 21 DART drivers from NBRU and SIPTU.

Iarnród Éireann urges our drivers and trade unions to resolve this issue through an arbitration meeting scheduled for this Thursday, and not to cause unnecessary disruption to DART customers.

Iarnród Éireann apologises to customers for any inconvenience caused. Full details of service cancellations will be issued as soon as available. Whereas most services will operate, we would ask for customers patience, particularly during this evening’s peak.

Note no details of which trains cancelled yet despite the fact I can list 3 already it doesn't take long to work out which links are missing drivers

Its looking like the usual NBRU Vs SIPTU turf war again
