Dublin & Ireland

RE: Dublin & Ireland
Evening, I haven't posted for a while, catching up from a trip to Scotland and the 100s of photos to be sorted. Buswise in Dublin, the next phase of the network review is running a bit late should be up and running in December. This will see the demise of the famous 46A and the 145, 155 and a number of alterations to existing routes. I will give more info later in the month. In the meantime, Dublin Bus have added extra peak departures to the 37/ 38 and 39A routes and interestingly some are operated by the EA (E20E) single deckers. What has happended is the National Transport Authority have questioned why brand new buses are in store for so long. Took a spin this evening on the 37 on the EA, it was fine, they are nice buses. They are meant to operate the O inner orbital route but that is delayed to 2025. Some pictures:

EW63 Leeson Street Upper 6 November 2024 - As far as I know, all EWs of the first batch are in service with the next batch on delivery. As is often the case, its the lack of chargers that is the problem.


GT123 Waterloo Road 6 November 2024 - The S2 southern orbital gets a decent mix of buses. Loads are good also.


SG173 Burlington Road 6 November 2024 - Evening line up for the peak departures.


AX582 Burlington Road 6 November 2024 - still hanging in and I expect AXs to survive into 2025.




EA34 Baggot St 6 November 2024 - Its a long time since single deckers appeared on the 38.


EA31 interior 6 November 2024 - These are high capacity buses and are meant for the O orbital route.
