Narrated by Cyril Cusack. (German subtitles turned on.) Some steam action shown on what is today's DART line in Howth.

Looks cool!

That trolley was operated by the Great Northern Railway rather than Dublin United Transport Company, or successor Córas Iompair Éireann.

Interestingly, there's now a movement afoot by Fingal County Council to try and rebuild the trolley in some form. A lot of the old dedicated right of way is still intact, although the bridge over Harbour Road would need to be replaced.
