Great system, but nowhere near enough of it for a city like Dublin - I'd build at least another two tram lines in the city centre along with a metro line and of course, the Dart Inter-connector.
How things have changed cross city luas means St Stephens Green is no longer a terminus. The green linetrams run from Sandyford or Brides Glen to Broombridge or Parnell down the length of O'Connell Street . The ones that cross O'Connell Street are the red line trams from Saggart or Tallaght to the point or Connolly station.
i used to live in dublin from from 1995 to 1996 there was no tram the city was beautiful then as it is now. best people irish people realy friendly and some hot girls a met in dublin

Yes and there us a reason why Dublin' s LUAS (tram) uses std gauge rather than the almost unique Irish mainline gauge (as used by both IE and up north, by NIR). Alto the 2 main IE Stations in Dublin (Dublin Connolly and Dublin Heuston) are connected by the east- west LUAS red line, there is no actual physical connection. So monies were saved re the LUAS gauge (the french design is in use elsewhere on the continent, which like next door GB, uses std gauge).
John Smith in the city centre that can't speed through it obviously for safety reasons (although they do feel fast while you're on them) but parts of the lines are separated from the roads so the trams travel pretty quickly on those tracks.
They would if they were given the option there should be a luas going from the cresent to U.L. in limerick with a LUAS that would be crowded all the time
Kieran Murphy it should be even more ambitious than that: anacotty p+r - UL - Horizon mall - City centre - docklands - Crescent - UCHL -Dooradoyle + p+R and possibly a second looping line using the existing rail alignment from moyross in through the city and back out again via the Ennis Rd possibly using a dual gauge setup. youd link up every major residential, employment and education centre and wouldn't ever need to take your car into the city again.

Trams are great. Amazing how they're back in many cities decades after they gave up on them.
The guy at 1:25 singing was the best xD
I loved the light rail in Dublin!!!
Something relaxing about watching trams go by.
Beautiful train cars.

New York City is thinking about putting crosstown trams 14th St. 23rd St. 42nd St.
Now it's terminus is at Broombridge
My Motherland, hey did you visit the Penny Bridge, during your trip? Thanks for the footage, excellent

the tram indeed is LUAS
Similar to how Melbourne's set out with their trams and trains
Can you do another Dublin Video like The Dart or Trains at Connily street
Blue line (Broombridge)♡
Fantastic trams in Dublin. But, it's still quicker cycling. CIE = Cycling Is Easier, we used to say.
Why are there no shots of passengers getting on or off the street car?
Вот это трамваи, а не Одиссей или Татра-Юг.

Yes

is the track gauge unusually wide with this train as well?
Hobo G No, it's standard gauge, made in France.
On the Luas network its 4ft 8 1/2 inches but for the Mainline railways its 5 foot 3 inches

Красота.

Using a LEAP card, since the pay terminal isn't on the tram how do they know when you get on that you actually paid?
They don't, every so often a ticket inspector will board and scan your leap card to see have you tagged on
Honour system!
Are the team's fast? It seems like they move pretty slowly.
John Smith in the city centre that can't speed through it obviously for safety reasons (although they do feel fast while you're on them) but parts of the lines are separated from the roads so the trams travel pretty quickly on those tracks.
Certain sections of the lines allow 70 km/h running
They're on the road so they have to stay a bit slow

Does it go to the Airport?
There are heavy rail connections to the airport so it doesn’t need to
@@CreatorPolar Thanks for that info.
@@bluesky4385 there are no rail connections to Dublin airport at present

Correct Dublin is almost unique amongst European capitals in not having an airport rail link!!

Why is everthing in dublin we need transportation in other parts of Ireland as well
because as it has been shown, nobody uses them outside dublin
They would if they were given the option there should be a luas going from the cresent to U.L. in limerick with a LUAS that would be crowded all the time
where is the space?

It would only work in Cork, Galway, Limerick, Waterford, Belfast and possibly Derry

The glider buses would be better for Cork. Cork is too small for a tram system.
