This is stopped since about 1440 in Portarlington. Train host has apologized for the delay but hasn't given a reason. There's nothing obvious yet although the signal is green.

Just set off there at 1450. A wheelchair passenger and two others accompanying her were boarded at Portarlington. There hadn't been any trains stop in the meantime. The IÉ guy told the party that the train was "straight through to Cork" so I imagine they were planning to get an indirect connection there but failed somehow.
