Overview
- An overhead electrical line in Raheny was damaged around 8:30pm Tuesday, disabling one northside track and prompting major service disruption.
- Iarnród Éireann said there are no DART services from Malahide or Howth to Clontarf Road and northern commuter trains from Howth Junction to Connolly are suspended.
- Repair crews began work after 1:30am on Wednesday but the operator has not provided a time for full restoration.
- Enterprise passengers bound for Belfast are using a bus transfer between Connolly and Drogheda, and Leap cards are being accepted on other TFI services subject to capacity.
- Iarnród Éireann estimates up to 20,000 commuters could be affected, increasing pressure on alternative buses and regional connections into Belfast.
