Irish Rail Services To Thurles Cancelled

Thurles Railway Station

Forgotten rural Ireland remains a little more forgotten this evening, as trains servicing the south-east are cancelled.

We understand that the rail services from Dublin will travel only as far as Portlaoise, due, once again, to a recurring power failure.

We are told that a bus service will be provided to ensure rail customers reach their destination. However commuters have previously found that this alternative bus service was not sufficient to accommodate all Irish Rail passengers and commuters in the past have been forced to wait for some 40 minutes for other buses to turn up.

Somewhat irate Irish rail representatives this evening at Portlaoise Railway station, have confirmed to passengers that they cannot be sure when their service will be back to normal or if trains will be allowed to return to Dublin either tonight or indeed early tomorrow morning.
