Delays for rail commuters after major signalling fault
Iarnród Éireann passengers have been warned to expect delays of up to 90 minutes on train and DART services after a "major signalling issue" in Dublin.
Signalling issues in Dublin have caused significant delays for rail commuters, according to Iarnród Éireann. The fault affecting all services between Landsowne and Donabate led to delays of up to 90 minutes, impacting various routes including DART, Belfast, Northern Commuter, Sligo, Rosslare, Maynooth, M3 Parkway/Hazelhatch, and Newbridge.
Iarnród Éireann's Head of Corporate Communications, Barry Kenny, confirmed that the technical team resolved the issue, and services resumed just before 1:10 PM. Customers were apologetic for the inconvenience caused. Iarnród Éireann stated that alterations will be made to assist in service recovery, and some delays can be anticipated due to congestion.
As of the latest update, delays are gradually easing as services are being regulated back to schedule.
