Irish rail advising people through twitter to secure their trampolines as one caused damage to the overhead powerlines on the DART line earlier. Back running now through.

Appears we had two trampolines with a eye to travel this morning

One in Blackrock (well near the tunnel I think) took a trip this morning

A second one met its end in front of a Waterford Dublin service

No Red Line service Tallaght - Belgard currently due a damaged building

All Irish Rail services running (with some delays)
