Senator Mark Duffy

Congratulations Mayor of Scranton @PaigeGCognetti on your election to Congress.

Scranton has been a sister city of Ballina since 1990.

In 2023 I was delighted to host Mayor Cognetti in Ballina as part of of President @JoeBiden’s visit following a visit to Scranton earlier that year.

It is great to see a friend of Mayo being elected to congress over night - wishing you the best for the term ahead.

👏👏👏👏

Following engagement with Irish Rail, they have just confirmed to me that they will be running an additional direct service for the All-Ireland final this Sunday in Croke Park - Direct from Ballina.

09:15 Ballina to Heuston,
19:45 Heuston to Ballina

Bookings to go live at approximately 4pm this afternoon.

💚❤️ They hope to extra services also.

My thanks to Irish Rail, local staff and drivers who have facilitated the extra services for supporters to travel up for the big game.
