Family and friends of a young dad who was tragically killed by an express train in Co Meath were being comforted last night as news of the horror death emerged.
Named locally as Jonathan Flanagan, 22, from Bettystown in Co Meath but living in Balbriggan, Co Dublin, his death has left local communities numbed and shocked.
It is believed Jonathan and a pal, in his 30s, were taking a shortcut via the railway tracks at Gormanston Train Station when a Dublin to Belfast express train collided with the two men.
