TODAY, A TRAIN travelling from Connolly Station to Sligo was delayed for 40 minutes while waiting for gardaí to arrive to collect CCTV footage.
A tweet sent out by Iarnród Éireann indicated that something serious had happened.
Iarnród Éireann received a call from a man who said that his bag had been robbed while on the train.
He emerged from the bathroom to find that his bag was gone and a man walking off the train with his bag in hand.
The gardaí were called and the 11.05 train from Connolly Station to Sligo waited in a lay-by at Enfield for gardaí to collect the CCTV footage.
A couple of hours later, a cleaner came across an unaccompanied bag while tidying the train.
It turns out the man’s bag hadn’t been robbed – he’d just taken a wrong turn when coming out of the bathroom, and returned to a different carriage, while his bag remained untouched in the next one over.
Nothing was missing from the bag and it was returned to its mortified owner.
It’s understood the man apologised to Iarnród Éireann and to the gardaí for reporting the incident, but really it’s a happy ending.
With a slight warning perhaps, that it’s not wise to assume the worst of your fellow passengers.

Am I the only one still playing snake on my Nokia… Sent via my toaster
@allister
nope I still play snake too. Snake 97 is an app on the Google play store. Emulates the classic snake game. So we can all re live the glory days.
My thumbs are so sore but I have to beat my old score.

You mean like the journal App? I had to delete it as it was seriously overheating the phone and since I deleted it my battery life has almost doubled.
