Throwback Thursday (479)
This week we are going back eighteen years to 2007, and to AX 528 on Leeson Street with a service on route 46B to Belarmine.
Route 46B started running between the city centre and Kilmacud Road (Stillorgan) in 1988, replacing route 64A. In 2002 the southern terminus was moved from Stillorgan to Sandyford Industrial Estate. In 2006 certain peak-time departures were extended to and from Belarmine, near Stepaside. These lasted until 2008 when route 47 started. The 46B lasted until September 2010 when Network Direct saw changes to the bus routes on the Stillorgan QBC, and routes 46B, 46C, 46D, 46X and 746 ceased to operate.
AX 528 was new to Dublin Bus in 2006. It was withdrawn in 2019, and sold on to another Irish operator.
