    Could anybody please tell me if the Sallins train station is accesable anymore?
    The housing estate and car park next to it are completely underwater and residents were evacuated. Any chance the other side of the station and tracks are still operating?

    As usual www.irishrail.ie have not posted any news of this and probably wont by tomorrow.

    Thank you!

    Hi.
    I was at the train station this evening.
    The Naas side carpark was closed off, but the Super Valu carpark was fine, Sallins side carpark also fine and trains were going by.
    The Housing Estate there certainly got the worst of it.

    The Waterways estate in Sallins was worst affected. But Sallins is not "under water". Naas and Clane have some spot flooding in parts. In general its not on the same scale as other parts of the country. The railway was not affected as its at a much higher level than the liffey and canal in Sallins.
