So I don't know how this slipped by, but #Metrolink 's Arrow service is suspended until further notice because the #DMU's airbrakes are out of federal compliance?? WTF?!

"...the air brake maintenance on all three operating Arrow Diesel Multiple Units (DMUs) is out of federal compliance, rendering all three sets inoperable per regulation. Unfortunately, as a result, beginning tomorrow, Friday, Aug. 2, Arrow service will be suspended until further notice."

A Iarnród Éireann (Irish Rail) Intercity 22000 Class DMU heads south across the dappled Curragh plain towards Kildare Town.

The Curragh is a flat open plain of almost 2,000 hectares (5,000 acres) of common land in County Kildare, Ireland. Wide open common low land heaths are a rarity in Ireland. The Curragh is home to the world famous Curragh race course top centre above the train and the area is also famous for Irish horse breeding with many training runs and stud farms dotted acround the Heath. The Curragh Camp is also home to the Irish Defence Forces. The heath is crisscrossed by many roads including a major motorway that provide important access to nearby towns like Kildare & Newbridge. The railway has provide a more direct link across the heath between these two town since 1846.

Earlier this month, #FS #Trenitalia 🇮🇹 ran their last diesel loco hauled passenger train: the services are now being worked by #DMU Diesel Multiple Units. My photo below shows a Class D.445, with the daytime Reggio Calabria to Taranto #InterCity, in February 2015.

Rode Metrolink all the way from VC to Redlands today to ride the Arrow DMU for the first time. Super cool train from Stadler, I hope to see these little dudes in service more places!

That said, we never would have got this headline without it. Almost worth it.

A right #DMU "Let the idiots rule" moment.

Wow yikes! You'll likely need to submit to invasive age verification methods to access big platforms from UK if I get this right.

This might mean GovID to enter PornHub, biometrics for kids or new forms of digital ID rolling in.

Kids too.
