Throwback Thursday (19)
This week for Throwback Thursday we are only go back four years, but it was a significant day. Network Direct was in full swing and bus routes were changing all over the city. As part of the changes we had to say goodbye to some very well known routes. On this day in 2012 we said goodbye to the 1,2 and 3. The next day we said hello to a new 1.
The old 1 operated from Parnell Square to the power station at Pigeon House. The 2 operated from Parnell Square to Sandymount and UCD. The 3 operated from Larkhill to Sandymount and UCD. AX 483 is seen beside the sea at Sandymount. It had just operated the last 1 to the Pigeon House, which can be seen in the background. It then operated as 2 from there to Sandymount and then became a 3 to Larkhill. Today the 1 operates from Sandymount to Santry, the power station has shut down and no bus route serves it. 12/05/2012
