Tangara T Set 8 Cars - Campbelltown, NSW, Australia 2008

The Tangara (an Australian Aboriginal word meaning to go) is a class of electric multiple unit operated by CityRail in and around Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. The Tangara comes in two subclasses - suburban sets known as "T sets", and outer-suburban sets known as "G sets". Tangara's commenced service between 1988 and 1995, and are known as "third generation" trains.

A Tangara is a four-car set, with the middle two cars being non-control motor cars, and the two outer cars being driving control trailers fitted with one pantograph. Like other suburban trains in the CityRail fleet, Tangaras are of a double-decker design. The trains are equipped with air conditioning and chopper control. Two four-car sets can be coupled to provide one eight-car set - most suburban Tangaras operate this way. There are occasional workings of an eight-car Tangara set made up of one G set and one T set, usually on outer suburban routes when there is a shortage of G Sets.
