[29-3-2009 & 5-4-2009] Malahide Howth Junction

[Mark Gleeson]

No DART services will operate until after midday between Malahide and Howth Junction due engineering works at Clongriffin station

Of course Irish Rail are hiding this

[Rashers]

What about suburban services/Belfast services?

[Mark Gleeson]

Probably looking at no train services until noon, so enterprise is effected as are commuter services.

But this is Irish Rail, the different parts don't talk to each other

[Thomas Ralph]

The first southbound Enterprise doesn't get there until around 12 if memory serves, so that might not be affected.

[Mark Gleeson]

Caught this on the camera phone

[Thomas Ralph]

Yeah, I saw them around and about.

[Mark Gleeson]

Finally something which tells the full story
