to and from Arklow and Rosslare
I have no idea whether these services are starting at their termini or not. Check with local staff.

That notice is pathetic: illiterate garbage and no real information. Whoever wrote it should be barred from ever posting anything on the IE website.

The incompetence of these notices is almost unbelievable- as has been said before, a simple template to be filled in for notices would work much better.

It was a major signalling fault in the Enniscorthy area. The 05.35 service was a bus to Enniscorthy. Signal trouble at Enniscorthy again this evening the 17.55 to Dublin was delayed 25 minutes
