All services on the Dublin to Belfast line are delayed this morning due to an earlier fault at Laytown.

There is a 20-minute delay on the line, according to Irish Rail.

Earlier, all commuter services on the Maynooth Line were suspended but the line has re-opened.

Maynooth rail services return to normal

Train services to and from Maynooth have resumed after being suspended earlier this morning due to what Iarnród Éireann said was an "act of vandalism".

It is believed a vehicle may have been obstructing the track at North Strand.

Sligo and Longford services are also running as normal.
