All the reports indicated it was an unmitigated disaster people trying to get to croke park and aviva from the maynooth line . There were a lot of people left behind on the platforms at castleknock , navan road and ashtown because of the small capacity trains and low frequency and people not able to board the train. There are pictures on Twitter of people standing inside the toilet cubicle on a 22k train.
The inbound docklands trains diverted to drumcondra and Connolly and then had to make a couple of reverses etc to get back to docklands . There are also reports inbound Sligo trains made additional stops.
