IrishTrainScenes Posted June 30, 2024 Author Posted June 30, 2024 Last night the 19:00 Connolly - Belfast was +42mins late into Belfast, anti social behaviour at Drogheda. Unfortunately the return 21:28 from Belfast struck an animal between Dundalk and Drogheda. Eventual arrival time in Dublin was 00:40hrs. Expect there to be a possible banger on the 10am ex Connolly… @jhb171achill Quote
