Update:09.50hrs

Updates on service disruption due to ongoing storm across Ireland.
All services are operating on all routes, but minor delays are to be expected as debris and fallen trees are cleared from lines.

Make sure to check train schedules before travel as there are alterations to normal schedules during the Christmas / New Year period.

Pearse Station closed

Due to roof damage, Pearse Station is closed to passengers. Trains will run through Pearse but will not stop at the station. Customers are advised to use Tara Street or Grand Canal Dock Stations instead.

07.00 Tralee to Heuston

This service is delayed by 120 minutes due to a fallen tree on the line and storm damage to a level crossing near Banteer.

07.35 Heuston to Galway/Westport

Service delayed by 60 minutes due to a fallen tree near Clara.
We will update this notice throughout the day with service information. You can also follow us on twitter @irishrail for service updates.
