Throwback Thursday (502)
This week we are going back fifteen years to 2010 and to AV 311 in Kilmainham, with a service on route 19 to Bulfin Road.
Route 19 started running between Glasnevin and Rialto in 1939. Initially its terminus was Ballygall Road East, but moved to Cedarwood Road in 1967. Around 1989 the southern terminus moved to Bulfin Road in Inchicore, and in 2001 the northern terminus moved to Jamestown Road. The route ceased to operate in 2011 under Network Direct, when it was partially replaced by routes 9, 83, 83A, 68 and 68A. The number returned to the network in 2025 when a new route 19 started running between Dublin Airport and the city centre under Bus Connects.
AV 311 was new to Dublin Bus in 2003. It was withdrawn in late-2017, and was sold on to an operator in the United Kingdom.
