Darragh O'Brien (Dublin Fingal East, Fianna Fail)

We have received the first tranche. There was an order for 165 carriages over two deliveries. The first portion of that is being commissioned now and they are being tested in Inchicore. They will be tested shortly on the northern line. They have been received and that testing and commissioning are important. We had 41 carriages delivered last year for the new DART fleet and the battery-chargeable trains as well. The first line they will run on is the northern line. That will be from quarter 4 of 2026. While they do not appear in the 2025 Estimate, they were ordered in 2024 or maybe even before that. We have received 41 carriages out of a total of 165. Some of the existing carriages on the northern line will then transition on to other lines, but this is part of the first order.
