KILDARE: Maynooth commuter line service reopens following temporarily halt requested by gardaí

A commuter line service in Kildare has reopened following a request from An Garda Síochana (AGS) to temporarily halt all trains.

Gardaí told the Leinster Leader that due to an ongoing Garda operation in the area, rail services at Broombridge/Cabra were suspended at the request of AGS temporarily.

AGS added that it 'has no further information available at this time.'

The Irish Independent reported that services remained suspended for over an hour on the commuter line.

A shuttle train service had been operating between Clonsilla and Maynooth station and Dubin Bus was honouring rail tickets.

The line reopened at around 12.30pm.
