[Mark Gleeson]

Word is coming in that the 8:30 Cork to Dublin has failed north of Port Laois station

Its being towed back to Port Laois

The 9:25 Limerick Dublin is delayed and is picking up the Cork passengers

You are delayed by more than an hour its refund time

[Mark Gleeson]

All passengers off the Cork train where transfered into the Limerick train and most had to stand, serious over crowding

There was no PA to explain and no mention of the right to a refund

Limerick train arrived Heuston over 1 hour late thus 50% refund

[Mark Gleeson]

8:30 ex Cork hit an obstruction on the line and failed as a result of damage sustained
