(21:35) Rail services out of Dublin's Heuston Station are experiencing delays, after an empty train caught fire near Celbridge, on its way to Cork.

Iarnrod Eireann says that two carriages were damaged by the fire before it was put out by the Fire Brigade. It is not clear why the fire started.

The train is being taken back to Dublin, and Iarnrod Eireann says delays will continue until the train has been cleared.

The company says that special trains for tomorrow's All Ireland hurling final won't be affected.
