Northern line delays - 26th March, UPDATE 21.50hrs

Due to a technical fault earlier on this evening's 18.15hrs Pearse to Drogheda service, all Northern commuter and Belfast services are delayed by up to 60 minutes.

Iarnród Éireann apologises for the inconvenience cause

Did they mention that the 21:18 from Pearse was cancelled online?

In pearse the message was and I quote
"GARBLEWARBLEGARBLEBLAHDIBLAHWARBLEGARBLE"
Well not the full announcement but you can probably get the gist of it there.
a few minutes later a very quiet announcement was made saying the service would leave from platform4 in Connolly and to get the next northbound dart.

got the dart which pulled into the very end of platform 5

I barely had time to walk back along platform 5 and onto platform4 before the doors beeped to close.

If a train is cancelled like this, am I entitled to a refund?
The train was advertised as running in 3 minutes on the platform display in Pearse at 21:14
