Following an earlier train fault, there will be reduced capacity on the 07.58 Maynooth to Bray & 08.32 Drogheda to Pearse services today.

In addition, the 07.58 Maynooth to Bray service may be delayed by up to 20 minutes.

Interestingly, the link on irishrail.ie was re-used for the "Limerick to Ennis, bus transfers operating" notice.

This was actually announced on one of the travel reports on the radio this morning - first time I ever heard Irish Rail admitting 'capacity problems' in advance. I wonder why?
