Overcrowding
The company had previously advised commuters travelling on the Maynooth line not to go to Connolly Station due to overcrowding.
Dublin Bus were also accepting valid rail tickets.
The 4pm and 5.05pm Connolly-Sligo services were amalgamated.
Delays of up to 40 minutes were expected on services departing Heuston due to signalling problems near Kildare.
