    FYI: I got off the train at Coolmine at 15:10 today and 6 youths went straight to the bikes and tried to rob them. When unsuccessful they tried to kick in a bike locker.

    It looked like their only reason for being on the train was to rob bikes at different stations.

    It a few goes for Blanch Gardai to answer the phone.

    I rang Irish Rail too and pinged them on twitter. They're happy to provide cctv if the Gardai request it. It would be great if they could track their original station - the local Gardai there may know them.

    Sorry, but it's not clear. Did the Gardai take your call in the end? What was the outcome?

    Sorry for the ambiguity. When they answered I was told that they'd already got a call about it (fair play to that other person!).

    I waited around for 5 more mins to see if the Garda car would arrive but no sign of it.
    A short while later, after I posted on a closed local facebook group, a person replied saying that they saw the Gardai circling the train station car park.

    I rang the Bike Locker guy to let him know what happened. The bike lockers are all still intact.
