15.20 Dublin - Belfast

tigger1962 · 30-03-2007, 13:52

Due to a security situation in lurgan(suspect device at bridge). Iarnrod Eireann are using a commuter train instead of the Enterprise to Belfast. This train will also stop at Laytown, Drogheda and Dundalk. Passengers for Belfast will have to change at Newry for a bus to Belfast. I understand that the train will carry on to Portadown. As per usual the Iarnrod Eireann staff are not very helpful and passengers on the train are confused! some have asked me about where the train is going... whether it is stopping at certain stations... i must have the look of a staff member???

As of 2 minutes ago (16.26), the IE website Travel Alert notice was the same as it had been at 11am, except now there is no time, so we don't know how up-to-date the info is.

Usual predictable incompetent Web performance.
