I know times have changed alot since that photo was taken but what part and from what view of Store Street is that exactly? I just can't make it out at
all.

Yes, you can see the railway bridge in the background. Clearly taken from the main bus entrance.
Does anyone know when the airport coach was moved from Cathal Brugha St. to Busaras? |

Maybe CIE wanted it moved to Busaras to suit the public coming off the coaches from the county like it is today??

If I remember, the Kylemore owned the land beside the railway on the site of the now much extended Store Street Garda station. |

Hi, The picture of the three R Airport buses you posted were taken by my good pal Neal Cahill resident in Kenmare.... Neal has taken many photos of Irish
bueses in the last fifty years.

I just can't make it out at all.Store Street is right beside Busaras. There's a Garda station there. It is brown-bricked with a rounded facade in the middle. A great photo as well. I don't think I ever saw one of these Rs in colour before. But, I think these looked great. How times have changed. |

I know where Store Street is but i couldn't figure out what part of Store Street the photo was taken, at what angle. But i can understand now. Thanks RM1986. |
