10 Minutes of TRAM's in Dublin IRELAND

Enjoy the compilation of LUAS trams in beautiful scenic Dublin City in IRELAND.

LUAS (pronounced [ˈl̪ˠuəsˠ]; Irish for "speed") is a tram/light rail system in Dublin, Ireland. There are two main lines: the Green Line, which began operating on 30 June 2004, and the Red Line which opened on 26 September 2004. Since then, both lines have been extended and split into different branches further out of the city. The two lines, as of 2017, now intersect and connect within Dublin city centre. The system now has 67 stations and 42.5 kilometres (26.4 mi) of revenue track, which in 2018 carried 41.8 million passengers, an increase of 11.2% compared to 2017.

LUAS is operated by Transdev, under tender from Transport Infrastructure Ireland.

LAUNCH
The original launch date for LUAS was to be 2003, but delays in construction saw this date pushed back by a year. An advertising campaign took place to inform the public of the development of the system, while construction was taking place. Construction finished in February 2004 and a period of testing and driver training began. 30 June 2004 was decided on as the official launch date of the Green Line. The first tram went into service for the general public at 3 p.m. Several days of free travel and a family fun weekend took place to launch the system. The Red Line opened on 26 September 2004, with six days of free travel for the general public.

ON-BOARD ANNOUNCEMENTS
Since 2010 all on-board LUAS announcements are in both Irish and English.

Fun fact : In France, in the city of Orléans, we have the same trams! They have just some differences, but this is the same model!
