There are long delays on train services between Cork and Dublin this morning.
Machinery equipment is blocking the line between Limerick Junction and Charleville, after it broke down overnight.
Anyone travelling between Cork and Dublin Heuston can expect delays of up to two hours.
Irish Rail's Barry Kenny, says services on the route will be affected by delays until lunchtime
"The machinery working on the line has broken down, so it's blocking one of the two tracks between Charleville and Limerick junction. It means that all trains in both directions have to go through the single track, and we have a lot of safety arrangements put in place for that. So delays are ranging between one and two hours on Cork to Dublin services at the moment, and that will continue, certainly up to lunchtime at this point, as we work to rectify the fault of machine and clear the line"
