* autumn Timetable for DART and Commuter Trains: Iarnród Éireann (Irish Rail) is implementing a revised timetable for DART and Dublin commuter trains due to autumn leaf fall.
* Leaf Fall & Rail Adhesion: Falling leaves create a slippery layer on the rails, reducing adhesion and requiring drivers to drive more cautiously. This is likened to “black ice” on roads.
* Schedule Adjustments: Morning services will be moved forward to maintain arrival times, while evening services will depart as scheduled (meaning passengers will arrive home later).
* Not a new Practice: Iarnród Éireann states that this “autumn timetable” approach is common practice in other countries like Britain, the netherlands, Germany, the US, and Canada.
