I have just arrived on the 07 15 am train from Portlaoise, the train pulled in at Platform 2, however as passengers are unloading there is a chap doing electrical work at a height, he is on a hoist at eaves level. This is a Health & Safety issue as passengers are walking underneath. Under Health & Safety Legislation this work area should be cordoned off, a pliers dropped from this height could cause a very serious injury.
