High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! When formed in 1945, Coras Iompair Eireann (CIE) inherited a GSR wagon fleet insufficient for post-war requirements. A major wagon building programme in the ‘50's and 60's eliminated this pre-war stock. The new stock consisted of open or covered general purpose wagons of the four-wheel loose-coupled design, without vacuum brakes and limited to 35mph. There were also a few specialised wagons built for tar, grain and cattle. These vehicles were in turn superseded and phased out by the introduction of the intermodal fleet in the 1970's. The new liner-trains, complete with vacuum brakes and Y25/Y27 bogies, enabled high speed (60 mph) transportation.
