Dart Trains (Dublin Area Rapid Transit) Seapoint - Dún Laoghaire HD

The Dublin Area Rapid Transit (DART) is part of the suburban railway network in Ireland, running mainly along the coastline of Dublin Bay on the Trans-Dublin route, from Greystones in County Wicklow, through Dublin to Howth and Malahide in County Dublin.

Trains are powered via a 1500V DC overhead catenary along part of the Irish Rail Network, all of which is Irish Broad Gauge. The national rail operator, Iarnród Éireann (IE), administers the DART system. On its inception in 1984, the DART was operated by Coras Iompair Éireann (CIÉ) of which IE is now a subsidiary. Part of the DART route, from the city centre to Dún Laoghaire, is of historic note — it was the first railway in Ireland, opening as the Dublin and Kingstown Railway on 17 December 1834. The DART forms part of the Dublin Suburban Rail network.

Hi @supereliptic, Thanks, Delighted you like it, I shot this on a Canon 5d, It's really a stills camera with great HD video quality, It's best used like long moving photographs if you know what i mean. It was edited just with imovie. I have some more random shot Dart/train stuff to post when i get a bit of time! There's some more Irish train vids from the 5d on the channel! thanks for the sub
