Minister for Food and Horticulture Trevor Sargent TD travelled by train to Malahide today to take advantage of the full restoration of the northern commuter service.
The Minister said, ‘The resumption of the train service is an excellent testament to the resolve of Iarnród Éireann to repair the collapsed viaduct ahead of schedule. I met many passengers this morning who were delighted that, in the midst of difficult economic times, they could be heartened that Iarnród Éireann was at least ensuring one aspect of their life was dependable and could be regarded as getting back to normal.’
