Passenger asked to move from prebooked seat stops train and calls gardaí

Most of us have been in the uncomfortable position of moving someone from our prebooked train seats - but this might be the first time the gardaí have been involved.

A female passenger on the 17.05 Dublin Connolly to Sligo train today took offence at a man politely asking her to move from a seat he had prebooked for the journey.

What followed surprised nearby passengers, including Shane Gillen, who has been tweeting about his experience.
