[1/2-5-2015] bus strike announced for these dates

[ThomasJ]

So Dublin bus and bus eireann drivers are expected to strike on the 1st and 2nd may over plans to privatise part of their service . no buses on these dates

Question is, presuming they go ahead, what position does this put Irish rail in, in particular with the proposed works north of pearse on the 2nd? Surely this will have to be called off?
