TWEET: Irish Rail passenger hails young man for his respect towards elderly couple

An Irish Rail passenger’s praise for a young man on their train seems to be richly deserved.

Twitter user @_Tweecher_ felt the young man was a "credit" to his generation after witnessing him spend his entire train journey respectfully chatting to an elderly couple sitting across from him.

The young man cheerfully made conversation all the way from Dublin to the couple's reported stop in Thurles and @_Tweecher_ felt it was rare to see such respect these days.
