Default Bridge Strike on Northern Line 26 Jun 2006

The 8:45 Enterprise from Connolly to Belfast was almost 45 mins late arriving in Drogheda due to a bridge being struck by a lorry. The train stopped north of Balbriggan, so I presume Laytown or Bettystown are the most likely locations. There was an announcement within a couple of minutes of stopping, each time appologising for the delay, "on behalf of Northern Ireland Railways and Iarnród Éireann". Several more announcements followed. The delay seemed to pass quite quickly because we were kept updated throughout.

I didn't check, but I assume there was nothing about on IE's website.
