          @toothless I hope you find them and I am very curious if the interiors looked any different

          @annika I gather there have been various different types of carriages over the years though presumably all with the same lush green check upholstery ! I’d particularly like to find images with posters/ads from the era.

            There was s scene in The Commitments that was shot on a DART which would have been late 80s. You might be able to get some stills from it, eg

              @TLB73 yes! Exactly! But lots, preferably from lots of different angles - big ask…

                      @TLB73 brilliant - o think the carriage model I’m after is the 8100- earliest one.

                            @toothless might be worth contacting RTE to see what DART footage they have in their archive.

                                    @toothless They originally did, but those were removed because they were so heavy and people kept hurting themselves on them.

                                    There are some blueprints here: https://irishrailwaymodeller.com/topic/5636-seeking-blueprints-cie-class-8100-dart/

                                    404 on the pdf in the last comment, but the original is still up on irishrail.ie - https://www.irishrail.ie/IrishRail/media/Imported/ie_foi_069_0_16076_0_01_000_00_two_part_electric_suburban_train.pdf
