WOODLAWN RAIL PROTEST DEFERRED

Date Published: 20-Apr-2011

Protestors threatening to 'stop' several Iarnrod Eireann trains passing through Woodlawn tomorrow have deferred their action until next week.

Resident and former county councillor, Michael John Kilgannon, is among a handful of protestors, threatening to force the 7-05 Galway to Dublin train to stop when it arrives in Woodlawn.

They want the transport company to provide more than just the two daily services on the Galway and Dublin route that stop at Woodlawn.

Michael Kilgannon says the protest has now been deferred pending talks with the Transport Minister.
