I miss the D.A.R.T.. I used it for ten years when I lived along the line years ago, so thanks, it brings back pleasant memories 🎉 Slan 👍 ❤
Great video, and lovely pronounciation of the placenames. Many visitors struggle with them but you nailed it. Liked and subscribed.
It required some googling for some!
I used to fly to Dublin quite often just to ride the 8100s. I'm going back to Dublin in August by using my freedom pass to catch the plane for the first time after coming home 5 years in west Africa, Dubai and Kenya. It looks like that the Stadler FLIRTs are going to ruin the DART like Hitachi with their 8xx IETs on the UK's railway network.
I like the boxy aesthetics of the old rolling stock, it reminds me of the older American metro trains. Also, those 10 minute frequencies are a whole lot better than most American commuter rail and even light rail systems.
I honestly want to go across the the us to see what transit is like there haha. Waiting for some crazy flight sale hehe
@@SomeoneExplores BART in the bay area and the Seattle metro are really sick, as well as Portland. But not that easy to reach from the UK. I'm originally from over there but now knockin about in London where to be fair it's pretty lush for transit.
Very thorough!
As someone from Dublin, I see the 8100s everyday. I hope plenty of the these units are preserved.
I was there the week before last and rode the entire Dart network. Loved the Class 8100’s with their loud motors. That’s a sound all but gone from USA railroads.
someone explores abroad ayeeee yes bro
increasing that budget haha

These DART trains might need replacing. I would like to go to Dublin.
I'm going within 3 months (first time on an international flight without a passport all thanks to Brexit and the common travel zone agreement)
Did you go all the way from Bray to Bearsden?
I notice you do not say anything about the 90 minute fare for €2, that on all bus, Luas and trains within rail fare zones 1 to 4.
Yeah, I wondered if I should put that in or not. When I went there was a promotional fare for the 90 min ticket I think
@@SomeoneExplores At the start there was a promotional price for the 90 min adult fare, which was €2.30. Then it way up to €2.50, before the price droped to €2, on the day phase 3 of the Bus Connects program began. Which was the 29 May 2022.
the style looks 90s?
1984 actually the newer trains are from 2000
1980s actaully. they were built in Germany in the early 1980s and then delivered to the Irish Rail (then CIE) in 1982, 1983. The systems fully began on July 23rd 1984 making it 40 years old this year.
