[Mark Gleeson]

Wrong line working is not available on the Maynooth line (its part of the electrification upgrade package between Clonsilla and Connolly). Only if a Dublin bound train broke down in the platform at Clonsilla can it be overtaken.

For the record

5:45 Longford Pearse arrived Connolly 9:15, 100 minutes late
7:15 Maynooth Connnolly arrived Connolly 9:18 85 minutes late

7:58 Pearse Maynooth was cancelled as its the return leg of the 5:45 service
