Portlaoise (Bus), 15-09-2018
More unusual bus activity at the station. Due to the replacement of pointwork at Thurles, the line was closed between Portlaoise and Limerick Junction, with bus replacement between those two points. Two services were operated - one direct to Limerick Junction for through passengers, the other service Ballybrophy, Templemore and Thurles. Organised as usual by Bernard Kavanagh, various hired in vehicles also appeared.

Railtours Ireland operate a couple of tours using the 0700 from Heuston, to Limerick and Cork. I suspect this coach is for the Limerick tour, to avoid changing modes three times in an hour or so. A freindly wave from Jonathan Beaumont as the specially liveried coach heads for the motorway.
