Default [12/4/2011] Dalkey-Bray suspended - vandalism of signalling equipment

Due to vandalism of signalling equipment

Didn't we hear about this problem on another line about a week ago?!

Strange, there was an overhead line power supply problem this morning affecting services through Bray. Hard to believe the two events aren't linked in some way.

Bray Head was on fire from this morning and is still on fire! Definitely had nothing to do with the delays.

Check it out, looked like a volcano!:



It was a seriously long delay for the diesel I got from Greystones though. We left at around half 10 and didn't arrive in town until 10 to 12. Very annoying, I missed my appointment and had to pay for it. I wonder could I send the bill to Irishrail
