@IrishRail hi, is there going to be additional services added soon for heuston to commuter areas at peak times? Both the 4.25pm heuston to limerick and 4.30pm heuston to Galway route are overcrowded and overheated as a result regularly.

[Michelle Fitzpatrick @michellefitz_]

@IrishRail Thank you! Yes definitely a bigger service needed, especially for the common commuting areas.

[Michelle Fitzpatrick @michellefitz_]

@IrishRail is there a reason the 16.25 service from Heuston is completely overcrowded? Was the same yesterday. Is there less carriages running? Many people sitting on floors and standing

Profoundly disappointing that the @IrishTimes would run a puff piece on an utterly unqualified influencer who puts vulnerable people at risk with their incessant scaremongering. Especially poor form that dieticians who repeatedly expressed their concerns were ignored..

[Dr Lisa Ryan @LisRyan_Nutri]

Sigh 😞 Yet another opportunity for an article that could be evidence-based and use a qualified registered nutritionist (RNutr) or dietitian (RD) to discuss health claims given away.
The number of
'Instagram followers' do not make someone an expert on Food & Nutrition.
