Presumably there are several trains stuck on the Sligo side of the flooding - at least one of them is probably a 7-car set, including the set that remains there from Friday.
It's not going to be easy to replace that.

The point been is how stupid and incompetent Irish Rail are, they should of moved all trains out of Sligo on Saturday evening as the area is known for flooding and even it didn't flood they should of bee moved.
Anywhere here is an update:
