Below you will find a link to a directory containing various Dublin Luas movie free clips. The files are medium quality digital movie (DV) edited, comprising a complete 'driver's eye' ride from a Red and Green line tram. I made them to show people living outside Dublin that the Luas trams are quiet, efficient and an effective solution to help solve Dublin's transport problems. They offer a view of modern Ireland and show what may be achieved with good public transport.

All clips are in '.MOV' format. These movies are available on DVD providing a continuous cab ride of the Luas Green and Red lines. They were taken in sunshine and film quality is good, even if not professionally shot (judge yourself from the clips). If you are interested in receiving a complete full resolution/TV quality DVD of the complete line rides for EUR 7.50/GBP £5/USD $9.50 per DVD [Paypal or €/£ cheque] including packing but excluding postage (which I'll do at cost/agreed price), contact me]
