Rail services between Dalkey and Greystones in Co Wicklow have been suspended until Monday morning.

The disruption is the result of a fire at a signalling station in Bray, which broke out around 11.30pm on Friday.

It is believed the fire started within the relay room at the station and was not a result of vandalism or criminal damage.

Signalling teams are assessing the damage and have indicated that services will remain suspended at least for the remainder of the weekend.
