Anyone at the aviva yesterday?
Just wondering was anyone at the aviva yesterday? How did it go? How did Irish rail cope with running the services before and after the match?

Irish rail failed to cater for fans on the Rosslare line. The 08.56 train to Connolly had people standing on arrival into Gorey.
I would estimate over 70 boarded this all ready full train at Gorey and loadings were heavy from Arklow, Rathdrum and Wicklow. The three coaches had people standing down the aisles and in corridors. To add insult the promotional fare was not available and it was 16.80 for the privilage to stand for two hours. |

they had the gates down all the time so you had cross via the underpass |

Really?
So they keep the gates closed at all times now? Wonder how that affects local traffic? |

I heard something about them ushering half the fans down to the Sandymount station? Any truth to this?
