Day two of Bus Éireann strikes underway but Irish Rail services back to normal

It’s day two of the Bus Éireann strike – with no end in sight.

Drivers say they can’t afford to take pay cuts as the company says its facing imminent insolvency.

The unions involved say they’re prepared for the long haul with pickets continuing at depots around the country.

Yesterday the action caused several disruption to trains as well – however Irish Rail spokesperson Barry Kenny says today services are back to normal.
