Finglas Routes 1980s

feeds@yuku.com (happy bus) — Sun, 08 Nov 2009 20:32:31 GMT

As a Finglas resident I have witnessed a lot of changes to its routes. I would not rate the present situation. In my opinion the situation in the 1980s was far the best. There was consistency with the routes. I felt that there was a route to cover every part in Finglas.

Route 34-Covered Finglas East, Finglas village, North Road and Mc Kelvey Avenue.
Route 35- Covered Finglas village, Jamestown Road and Mc Kee Road, old Finglas.
Route 40- Covered Finglas village, Mellows...

Classic car front wings urgently required

feeds@yuku.com (C236) — Sun, 08 Nov 2009 19:21:41 GMT

I'm on the lookout for a pair of good condition secondhand front wings to fit the car in the photo below, does anyone know of any looking for a new home?

It's a 1968 Austin Cambridge, the same model was produced from 1962 to 1971. Morris Oxford parts (from the same years) would do either.

Any help welcome!!!

Mountoy Sq. West - bus stop query?

feeds@yuku.com (Gavin) — Sun, 08 Nov 2009 17:07:12 GMT

Anyone on here use or drive any of the 46a, 46b, 46c, 46d, 46e, 63 or 145 to Mountjoy Square?

If so, can you shed some light regarding bus stops... there used to be a stop on Mountjoy Sq. West, after the buses turn from Gardiner Place onto Mountjoy Square, the stop was next to where the Dublin Bikes stand is, does anyone know if this stop has been taken away or is it still in use?

Thanks.

Old sayings no longer heard..........

feeds@yuku.com (oneonetwo) — Sun, 08 Nov 2009 09:35:07 GMT

On a related subject to the thread on accents and pronounciations (dortspeak), the following are sayings and phrases used by bus conductors and almost certainly the tram conductors before them, which will be lost forever with the passage of time...........

"Hold the rails "
"Fares please"
"Any more fares please?"
"Three on top, the rest inside"
"Full on top"

WV51 on Dart Shuttle today Sat. The little bus could barely cope with passenger numbers, left some behind at Westland Row. Took me nearly 2 hours to get from Bayside to Bray this morning.

Bus Éireann fleet allocation as of 7/11/09

feeds@yuku.com (VWL119) — Sat, 07 Nov 2009 00:54:31 GMT

It's worth a shot, but there is plenty of information on this board about various buses and coaches being allocated to different depots, but I think we can all agree that it would be nice if there was a "one stop shop" where we would easily identify what depot had what buses rather than trawling through the search function and wondering what is where or going into the various fleet types and only getting one particular type at one particular depot(though I prefer this...
