Default [6/7-6-2008] Radiohead @ Malahide Castle

Lots of talk from Irish Rail about extra Dart services but no notice giving any indication of times. Nothing in the online timetable either

An extra train appeared to run last night, probably left Malahide at about 23:30 it passed through Pearse at about 23:50 for Bray

It then ran back empty to Fairview

I gave in on Irish Rail and their "extra Darts" so I cycled out to Malahide and back into town.

I heard from other gig goers that the 22:36 didn't run, so it's possible one of the "extra" trains was the 22:36 deferred.

There were plenty of concert signs for it out these parts saying "please buy return tickets".

Friday night there was certainly an extra train, I saw it roll over the bridge into Pearse at 23:50

Saturday there where trains arriving into Pearse stopping and continuing southbound well after midnight, last southbound is normally 23:34
