Hundreds of train passengers are being warned of long delays after a tragedy on the rail line earlier this morning.
The 9.30am train from Galway to Heuston struck and fatally injured a woman just north of Sallins station. There are no trains leaving Heuston Station at the moment - and it's not yet known when services will resume.
Emergency services are at the scene.
