What is lirr m8?

The LIRR M8 is a type of electric multiple unit train used by the Long Island Rail Road (LIRR) in New York. It is designed and manufactured by Kawasaki Rail Car, Inc. and Bombardier Transportation. The M8 train features energy-efficient technology, including regenerative braking that captures energy when the train brakes and uses it to power the train. The trains also have modern amenities such as comfortable seating, air conditioning, and Wi-Fi. The LIRR began using the M8 trains in 2011 and they are still being added to the fleet as older trains are retired. They operate on multiple LIRR lines, including the Port Jefferson, Ronkonkoma, and Montauk lines.
