Cork wildcat

Maintenance staff at Kent Station in Cork have been on strike since mid-day Tuesday.

The workers were asked to work replacement instead of maintenance rosters, which would normally entitle them to additional pay. They have recieved support from other Irish Rail workers, with pickets in place from 3pm Tuesday, and spokesmen from their employers saying disruption will continue "until further notice".
