PICS: Irish Rail DART Got A Unique Makeover Today

Commuters getting on the DART this morning were in for a lovely surprise. The folks at Irish Rail wanted to celebrate the Chinese New Year so they decked out some of their carriages in Chinese lanterns and poetry.

They also invited Yan Chanlin, of Shanghai Metro, to launch the event which featured singers, dancing and food at Connolly Station for passersby to celebrate the day.
