The line was closed for over an hour from midday to about 13:15.

Information on the delay was not very forthcoming.

The 12:30 Maynooth Pearse departed Maynooth at 13:23 and was delayed also at Clonsilla for 10 minutes to let another inter-city train pass.

I didn't think it was possible for a commuter train to let an Intercity train pass on the Maynooth line, not even at Clonsilla, has this changed recently?
