Trains from Clonsilla to city

    Just wondering if anyone here has been getting the train in to the city mon-Fri recently, and if so is there any capacity issues with the social distancing requirements?

    Have heard from colleagues that theyve had to wait for 3 or 4 buses/trains before they could get on one as they were already at their current capacity limits when they pulled in at their stops/stations.

    I'd normally get the 7.30am train to Connolly and hop onto a dart from there & then get the train at Pearse at approx 5.40 to Clonsilla in the evening and with our office opening again may start using the train again soon.

    Thanks.

    Can't imagine anyone staff or passengers telling you to get off a train due to social distancing.
    I'm driving into town at the moment but will be getting the train this Thursday.

    I've heard different with dublin bus though.

    Yeah, I do think its more of a Dublin bus issue than a train one, ona bus the driver can monitor & control the occupancy, a lot harder to do so on a train with multiple entrance/exit points.
