Galway Bay fm newsroom - Many people hoping to travel by train in Galway today have been left confused and stranded by a lack of services.
Bus Eireann drivers are engaging in an all-out strike, over the threat of pay cuts which bosses claim they have no option but to enforce.
While school bus services are running in Galway today, all other Bus Eireann services have been cancelled due to the strike action.
Rail services have also been affected as rail workers won't cross the picket lines manned by about 35 Bus Eireann drivers at Ceannt station in the city.
The 20 past 7 Galway to Heuston, Dublin train will go ahead as well as the Heuston to Galway - match special - train at 11.25 tonight.
Today's 11.25a.m, 1.05p.m, 5.30p.m, 6.30p.m and 7.35p.m Dublin to Galway services have all been cancelled.
There will be no service running between Galway and Limerick.
The reason some trains are running between Galway and Dublin is because these trains are staffed by rail workers from Athlone or Heuston which are not sites of Bus Eireann picket lines.
Chief Commercial Officer of Bus Eireann, Stephen Kent, says they're in serious financial trouble.
Some members of the public in Galway were left confused by the impact on rail services as a result of a bus strike.
There appears to be no end in sight to the strike action and traffic is expected to be heavy in and out of the city this evening as commuters use cars instead of Bus Eireann transport.
