I'd really like that extra half an hour back in bed #railstrike — Lauren Kelly (@LaurenSpin1038) November 6, 2015
Unreasonable maybe but why couldn't you've called off #railstrike when I was awake & could be told not to get up at stupid o'clock for bus! — Allyson Ng (@zen_princess) November 6, 2015
Only three people in Salthill and Monkstown. There's usually around 20. The DART's will be empty. #railstrike pic.twitter.com/neWZKRmGur — Daniel Kelly (@IsMiseDaniel) November 6, 2015
