Numbers on DB tickets

feeds@yuku.com (dc08) — Sun, 06 Dec 2009 23:15:13 GMT

Hi all,

I've been wondering about this for a while, maybe someone can help me.

There are three numbers just underneath where it says "Not Transferable" on the tickets from Dublin Bus, from what I can deduce the third of these seems to be the fleet number, and the first two digits of that indicate what type of bus it is. One of my tickets says 40001, so at a guess I'd say that's EV1 since I vaguely remember the bus looking like an EV. I don't know...

Advice please

Would anyone know if there are any shops (preferrably in Dublin City or anywhere else for that matter) that can do personalised Christmas Cards?

I want to get (just 1 card) a special Christmas Card for a good friend of mine, but i want to be able to tell the person in the shop what exactly i want written on the front of the card, and the greeting in the middle of the card, and also maybe a picture on the front of the card too (which i will give a photo of what i want on the front of...

Hello all,

Recently, I recieved a Yahoo! mail email stating I must update my information with them, and I did (Id, email address, password, name etc). But I now believe it was a 'Phishing' email, and they hacked into my website email using the information I returned to a 'Yahoo Customer Care' (obviously it wasn't) agent.

So basically, don't reply if you get one, and if anyone recieves an email from my

Stealing this from 10a thread, but anyone want to share some epic bus or train trips here?

What I posted in the 10a thread:
Well now if you want epic voyages I boarded a Eurloines bus with Redstar one Friday evening, went to Manchester and came back that Saturday night and got home around eleven on Sunday morning with very little sleep on the whole trip as Redstar would attest.

These are quite detailed maps and for one show the tramtracks. These maps indicate the exact O'Connell Street layout at the time and also allow you to see exactly where the tramway system was 2-track or 1-track.

One can also overlay a modern map onto the...

This is a carry on from the worst bus topic. I was going to bring this up recently but with the last few comments on the worst bus topic it's no better time. Some of you pointed out that you are not fans of the EVs so i wanted to get an over all view of what would come out top between these two types. I think i know already but it would nice to know the majority between them. I am much more of a frequent user of the EVs than the vgs, EV51-64 going to Clondalkin on the 51b/c and 68/69 and...

Just following on from our discussion of our favourite bus/buses, does anybody here have a bus that they really really hated, despised? Whether it be just a bus that you just didn't really like, if it was a bus that broke down alot of times when you were on it or a bus that broke down when you really needed to get to your destination for something very important (like a job interview or if you had to get a connection bus from somewhere else or whatever), or ifs its a bus that was involved...

Due to a recent appearance of a huge pothole/crater on a road near Kentstown, the Gardai were reported to be at the scene directing traffic around it!!!!

In November 1969, a few new Atlanteans went on the road for the first time. They were D280 291/2/4 and 307. They all started service in, most appropriately, Donnybrook Garage. The D280s were already in Conyngham Rd. and had converted route 23, while D295 - 304 had already gone to Cork. Donnybrook withdrew a few Boltons from service against the new Ds, and the Bolton fleet was now down to just over 20 of the original 100.

But the most important event of all in November 1969, exactly...

Of all of us on this site, i presume the vast majority of us are male, and i am curious to know are there as many ladies who have a 'hobby' or 'interest' in being a bus/train/plane spotter/enthusiast as there are men? I only know that Green Atlantean who is a poster on this site is a lady, but are there any more out there?! I never imagined that women would overtake men in an interest/hobby like this but i know there's bound to be some, and there may well be girls who read...

Alot of us on this site have a bus number as our user name (example VC105, VWL119, KD191, SI80, SP48, TE32 etc), and i would like to ask does anybody have your own favourite bus that you like most? Not the type of bus, as in you like the SP's over the VR's (for an obvious reason LOL), i mean the number of the bus. As you can tell, my favourite bus is VC105, i've always loved this bus and have been on her for several years several times. So what if i asked you to give maybe 3...

My partner and i went up to Harristown yesterday evening. She wanted to go to Ikea and I wanted to do some bus sighting. We compromised. Thank god Ikea is beside Harristown. The weather was awful so it was hard to make out the plates. Half an hour in we decided to make tracks only for the battery to go dead. On any other occasion it would fine because i could watch the buses but the rain was pelting down and the wipers were not working due to the battery. I could not see anything. The two...
