Ireland's Trains

Rear Driving Unit of Intercity set waiting departure at Cork Kent Station. New development underway in background. Below : rear unit of Cobh local service set from Cork and illuminated route map in our coach - showing station stops from Cork to Dublin- a two hour journey. Very comfortable seating with plenty of leg room unlike UK cramped rolling stock.

Below : Standard DART electric set at Howth terminal station. An uninspiring colour scheme for the system.

Approaching Connolley Station with a glimpse of a diesel freight engine in the yards.

And from the other side of the DART coach a remarkable surviving piece of steam railway insfrastructure visible from Connolly Station platform : Water Tank and turntable.
