200 stranded on Sligo to Dublin train
Wednesday, 16 April 2008 13:08
More than 200 passengers on the Iarnród Éireann Sligo to Dublin rail service are stuck at the station in Clonsilla after a signal fault this morning.

The train left Longford at 10.15am but was delayed initially in Westmanstown for 35 minutes and came to a halt again in Clonsilla.


Passengers have just been told that power failure is responsible for the delay.

An ambulance has arrived in Clonsilla to take away a person who has fallen ill on the train.

Passengers on board the train said Iarnród Éireann had not given them any indication when the train will continue its journey.

There are no taxis or local bus services yet available at the station to allow passengers continue on their journeys.

- This sounds very weird. I take it the train stopped at the station no?
