As is typical Irish Rail aren't saying much

Bus transfers Newry to Dundalk by Press Office

Bus transfers Newry-Dundalk: train struck car at level crossing: delays as a result
Translink is a little better

Bus Substituation between Newry and Dundalk
The line is closed between Newry and Dundalk due to an obstruction on the line, a bus substituation service is in operation. Enterprise passengers should be advised to expect some delays and disruption to services.
Unclear if it was the empty Dundalk - Newry train or last nights 23:59 Connolly Belfast Take That special

Its most certainly the Meigh level crossing so favoured in the dark days of the troubles
