Default [21-2-2010] Lansdowne Rd - Dún Laoghaire closed

No services between Lansdowne Rd and Dún Laoghaire due unknown engineering works

As always we have the notice up first

The only hint is a stack of sleepers for a set of points and some new rail which appeared next to the engineering siding in Dún Laoghaire over the weekend

Surely this contravenes some sort of minimum notice period.
