DART types

[ofey]

1. This the first dart the class 8100 EMU which I think means (Electric Motor Unit) was introduced in 1984

2. 8300 class. These were refurbished after several were taken out of service as they caught fire however the rest are still in use.

 

3.A more modern double pane DART with a round roof.

4. 8520 class. A more modern double pane DART with a flat roof.

 

5. A modern underground DART to be introduced in 2025.

 

There seems to be 5 types of DART is that correct or are there any more? And what is each of these called and when were they introduced?
