Those pesky local swans are up to their old tricks again, and this time they’re causing disruptions for DART commuters.
After a couple of the birds wandered onto the tracks at Lansdowne Road station, trains came to a halt while staff tried to remove the animals.

Some commuters weren’t pleased about the interruption to their journey, one person even suggested running over the swans, which Iarnród Éireann was quick to respond to.
We are not in the business of killing animals.
