We had a very funny train driver today.

When the train was approaching Portarlington he announced that passengers move up from the rear of the train so that they don't fall out and hurt themselves.

The funniest part was the following announcement made when we were approaching Heuston (not a precise quote but you get the idea):
"We are due to arrive at Hesuton Station DUblin in five minutes time. There are bus links from the station and the Luas too. We are keeping up with the times. The number 90 bus will take you into town and there is also an airlink service. On behalf of myself and all the crew I'd like to thank you for travelling with Irish Rail. We hope you arrive safely at your final destination. Thank you. I LOVE YOU ALL!"

Then as we pulled into the platform he just announced "DUBLIN" really loudly and cheerfully.

It left everyone in a good mood heading off to work.
