Not good at all! no extra trains planned!

Wonder will trains (in particular maynooth, dundalk is scheduled to leave malahide 23:35 which is reasonably late enough, but for maynooth passengers to get back to connolly before 23:17) be held in the event that the concert runs late

Looks like no maynooth trains late for sunday night. Disappointing considering the leinster final is on same day as concert. pity!

will be interested to know what time tonights gig finishes at................

On top of lack of special services DART/COMMUTER wise, there is no nightlinks tonight!! Last buses from city centre is 11.30pm.

So unless you are Dogheda/howth/bray/greystones etc. 22.42 is the train to be on!!!!!

was at this gig on Saturday, seemed very organized. Finished at 10ish, Had gardai at the station gettin ppl on the trains and tickets sold at the entrace,while ppl who had tickets went thru another gate.

darts were all 8 car ones,don't know if they did this on purpose,i was heading to balbriggan and my train was fairly late arriving and then stayed a long time due to to door problems
