Strike ‘cost Irish Rail €1.5m’ in lost revenue

Speaking to reporters at the Cliffs of Moher yesterday, Mr Donohoe said Irish Rail was already in a very difficult financial position before the €1.5m lost over Sunday and Monday.
Three further days of strike action are planned by Siptu and the National Bus and Railworkers’ Union later this month in response to Irish Rail imposing temporary pay-cuts last weekend.
