Great to get a look at the new @IrishRail DART carriages that have been ordered and due to arrive in 2025 at @TRA_Conference this morning
@brian_caulfield @IrishRail @TRA_Conference Be even better to have a spur to the airport
@brian_caulfield @IrishRail @TRA_Conference Question. Was the dart constructed with the same unique gauge as irish rail so rolling stock could not be universally and readily procured from the EU without special order?
@brian_caulfield @IrishRail @TRA_Conference No opening windows and crappy ironing board seats , does everything have to be on the cheap
@brian_caulfield @IrishRail @TRA_Conference Looking forward to the introduction of these darts, long overdue. Pity the seating not along the side as per metros. Far more practical.
@brian_caulfield @IrishRail @TRA_Conference Real pitty this wasn't a #StadlerRail FLIRT train, the passenger setup is far more superior and friendly for luggage and bikes, seats are wider with larger windows too Ireland really misses out in providing decent rail transport stadlerrail.com/de/produkte/de…
@brian_caulfield @IrishRail @TRA_Conference They look nice but it's only for show as they are not immune to Anti social issues
@brian_caulfield @IrishRail @TRA_Conference Nice, but they really should run the seats along the side similar to the District Line in London. A far more effective layout
@brian_caulfield @IrishRail @TRA_Conference Will they ever put in 2 tracks from bray to wexford so that we can a proper rail system on the east coast?
