Irish Rail has urged passengers to be on the lookout for fake ticket inspectors as a warning has been issued following reports of false inspectors issuing on-board fines to people.
According to Iarnród Éireann, members of the public who have no affiliation with the rail service have been donning non-Irish Rail high visibility vests and pretending to be members of the Roads Policing Unit along the Northern commuter/DART line.
The rail service added that when it comes to anyone requesting tickets or issuing an onboard fine, it is advised you confirm the ID of the person requesting the ticket or fine money.
