Iarnród Éireann apologises for any inconvenience caused.

The 1900 will probably be delayed by at least 30 minutes as a result of this arrangement but who cares ? Crossborder service is rapidly approaching irrelevance - slow, infrequent and unreliable.

Northbound DARTs around 17.00 running 10-15mins late. I know a batch of people who missed the 17.07 ex Connolly-Balbriggan as a result. Anyone know what caused tonights DARTS delays?

The 18.50 departed Connolly at 18.51 and the 19.00 departed at 19.02. Both were 10 minutes late in Drogheda. As the 19.00 was catching up on the 18.50 the emergancy alarm was actviated twice so two sudden breaking and then another for unknown reason soon after.

Must say all handled quiet well in Connolly with a member of staff directing people to platform 3 for the 18.40. One thing that suprised me is the majority of traffic on the 19.00 is to Drogheda and Dundalk the 19.00 had very few standing after departed Drogheda.

Is it still loco problems as the 18.10 to Connolly had a EGV.
