NIR Class 3000

[Steddenm]

Does anybody know the following regarding the NIR Class 3000 units built by CAF?

The length of one of the driving coaches
The height of the unit including bogies
The width of the unit

Any schematic diagram of the unit

I'm putting together a seating plan of them for a project and can't find any info (or the info is conflicting) online.

Thanks all!

No clue if this at all helpful, but I think the class 4000 and class 3000 trains have identical width and length

Yeah thanks. I've checked with CAF, Wikipedia and Translink and they all say different things!

if CAF and Translink disagree that is rather worrying.... Though wikipedia being wrong isn't exactly unexpected

They're not far off - 25cm or so but I'm trying to get the exact measurements for something we are doing.

Where are you seeing it on Wikipedia? Either I'm going blind or none of that data is there at all...

From the Irish Railway Record society journals:

NIR 3000 Class

Intermediate: 23.14m
Width: 2.75m

Weight: 48.97 + 45.10 + 48.80 tonnes

Seating capactity:
48 (plus 10 tip-up), 1 disabled toilet, 2 wheelchair spaces + 78 + 58 (plus 6 tip-up), 1 toilet

This info was taken from NIR at the time they were new, presumably from details supplied by CAF.
