Iarnród Éireann has unveiled a fleet of 67 new carriages it has bought as part of a €460m programme to upgrade inter-city trains.
The carriages, which cost €117m, were unveiled at Dublin Port today after being delivered from Spain.
Eight of them are due to be introduced on the Cork to Dublin line later this year. Iarnród Éireann has ordered a total of 223 new carriages as part of the upgrade plan.
