Throwback Thursday (484)
This week we are going back thirty-nine years to 1986, and to D 582 on Pembroke Street with a service on route 10 to the Phoenix Park.
Route 10 started running between the Phoenix Park and Donnybrook in 1940. Around 1970 it was extended to University College Dublin (UCD) in Belfield. It probably became one of the most well-known routes in the city, as it was used by many people to either go to the zoo or to college. The route ceased to operate in 2010 when it was replaced by route 46A on the northside, and route 39A on the southside under Network Direct. Pembroke Street is served by route 39A.
D 582 was new to CIE in Dublin in 1974. From 1978 to 1985 it operated in Cork. It was withdrawn by Dublin Bus in 1991.
