Beneath Dublin Airport lies a secret.
You may have walked through it.
You may have checked in your bags there.
But it was never meant for passengers.
It was meant for trains. 🚇
This is the 100 year story of how Dublin never got a metro:

Today marks Gaia's end of observations: https://t.co/RcogUOq1o3. Gaia now performs a set of technology tests to help future missions: https://t.co/Q5HqOHa14X. The most up to date view of our Milky Way was created thanks to Gaia, with much more to come with #GaiaDR4 + #GaiaDR5.
So long and thanks for all the fish! I just observed my last star this morning... #GaiaDPAC and @esa Gaia teams will do their best to make some great data releases from all the data I gathered! #GaiaDR4 in 2026, #GaiaDR5 around the end of the decade. Keep posted for our news items today at 10:00 CET.

@daveirl There seems to be little or no maintenance of anything nowadays. Paths becoming unusable due to weeds/grass accumulation, overhanging trees, blocked drains just waiting to flood etc.
