What does ETA stand for?

RIP poor man. I feel for his family/friends over Christmas.

What happened exactly?

The Irish Times are calling it a "serious incident", I could be wrong but this almost always translates to mean someone jumped in front of the train. The impression I get from the article is that it involved the enterprise.

I feel for teh person's family so close to christmas but I feel terrible for the poor train driver if it is the case of a suicide.

Unshelved

Update from twitter @irishrail

Update: Line between Howth Junction and Skerries has reopened. Services will resume, some minor delays can be expected.
