IE 8520 Class

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The 8520 class is a four-car electric multiple unit (EMU) used on the Dublin Area Rapid Transit (DART) system. Introduced in 2004; there are ten of these sets[1]. The units can be seen working in multiple with any other DART class though usually another 8520 unit. They were the first units to carry the revised DART logo and also the first to be fully air conditioned. They can be distinguished from the previous 8500s and 8510s by the lack of opening windows in the passenger seating area.
