    Well they fitted :D

    Irish Rail would never do that, the unions wouldnt push passengers in without a pay rise :D

    I was in Tokyo travelling during rush hour every day for a month recently and it never got that bad! I think they have sorted out their capacity issues since this video was taken. Although there were a few interesting journeys where you get to know the bodies of those around you quite well!

    I've seen it *nearly* that bad on the Western (Maynooth) Commuter Line. Especially if one of the morning trains doesn't show up and the next one is only 4 carriages.

    As anyone commuting from Maynooth or Leixlip will know, once you get past Clonsilla in the morning, the 'Calcutta Line' begins.

    I wonder if Iarnrod Eireann would hire some of these Tokyo rail guys to work at Ashtown? :D

    Wow, on the day of one of the two biggest annual sporting events in the country, you had to travel for 8 minutes and the train was packed, how awful for you :rolleyes:

    Sensing a little bit of sarcasm, well it wasn't that bad except my brother couldn't get on the train and it went off with me in it, and I was stick waiting in Druimcondra by myself for about a hour waiting for him to get there by Dublin Bus... Now that was crap
