Sir, – Embarking upon an Iarnród Éireann train to Dublin – from which I write – I was handed a 500ml bottle of water by an employee. In the light of the present uncharacteristic meteorological patterns we are experiencing at this time, the gesture was both welcome and touching. Well done Iarnród Éireann! – Yours, etc,
