Default Caption Competition

Here is an everyday event in the spin-free world of Irish Rail.

But what are they saying?

Dempsey: And this is where we'll connect up with the WRC-Maglev line.

or

Dempsey: Fetch my chauffeur driven car, will you? I don't think this train is coming anytime soon.

Minister for Meath affairs:Hey this picture reminds me of a very funny joke I heard in the Dáil yesturday.

Paddy Scotsman, Paddy Englishman and Paddy Irishman were stuck in traffic for 3 hours trying to get home to Navan from Dublin.
Paddy Scotsman says, I'm sick of this traffic. Why don't we build a new Quality Bus Corridor along the Navan road so we can get the bus instead and help us to get home faster.
Paddy Englishman says, I'm sick of this traffic. Why don't we build a new Motorway. That should reduce the traffic numbers and help to get home faster.
And then Paddy Irishman say, I'm sick of this traffic. Why don't we reopen the Navan rail line....

(minister laughs)ah ha ha ha...isn't that just the funniest thing you've ever heard. Rail carrying more people and getting you home faster, ha ha ha... What next, we build an actual metro system for Dublin, ah ha ha ha.

How about, "well, one thing we can be absolutely certain of, the light at the end of the tunnel isn't an oncoming train."

You have to get up very early in the morning (well, before 8 anyway) to beat me to a good caption contest!
