    Services have resumed. One Dart went north and another south. Thankfully it doesnt seem to be too serious.

    I was on the DART. Hit a woman just past the bridge at Clontarf at 15:45. I knew straight away we hit someone with how the train stopped and the alarm sounding from the cab from emergency brake being applied. Could actually feel and hear the impact.
