Some old photos: would like to identify coaches

[Darrman]

Recently I found some old photos of a family holiday. Sadly no photos were taken of the locomotive (if any), but a few were taken inside the coaches.

Killarney, ~2006

Heuston?, ~2008. There may be trains outside the window, but I wouldn't be able to identify them.

Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Dunno what the top one is - don't recognise the upholstery or the window shape..... lower one maybe a Mk 3 PP? Where was this train going to?

 

[Darrman]

Lower one would have been Cork-Dublin, higher one Mallow-Tralee.

OK, lower one a Mk 3 set, no doubt. I wonder is the top one a 2700?

Gut instinct is the top one is a 2600

Top one 2600 series railcar.

The bottom standard Mk3 loco hauled (PP Mk3 had the open windows)

Thanks for the answers, everyone.

I might have to get my hands on a Mark 3 at some point...

Yes- l'd recommend it!     Best coach around!

My first railway memories are of the last of the mark 3s and commuter livery DMU’s too. Hard to believe only last year we saw the end of that livery!
