Throwback Thursday (494)
This week we are going back twenty-five years to the year 2000, and to RV 567 parked on Hawkins Street while dressed for route 46A to Dun Laoghaire.
Route 46A started running between the city centre and Dun Laoghaire in 1936, having first reached Cabinteely in 1926 and Goatstown in 1933. In 2010 its city centre terminus was relocated to the Phoenix Park in 2010 when under Network Direct it replaced route 10 on the northside. The route ceased to operate in January 2025 when it was partially replaced by route E2 under Bus Connects.
RV 567 was new to Dublin Bus in 1999. It was withdrawn in October 2012 and sold on to an operator in the United Kingdom.
