Was looking through photos on my phone & realised I never posted three of Warhol when I took her up to Hahndorf (a town in the hills I like to visit) last year.
I was sorting some old photos and found some that I had taken in the production area where I was employed as a graphic designer. Without all these machines and pieces of various equipment it would not matter that we upfront spent time to design a beautiful piece of art or that our sales staff worked hard to secure the account because without production and all the pieces of machinery we could not produce the final (book, magazine, brochure, poster, etc) that shipped to the public which enabled us to stay open for business. Yeah for machines . . .
A short throwback this week to 2007. EV 7 is seen on O'Connell Street with route 3 from Larkhill to UCD Belfield. The bus was brand new at the time, and marked a change from the ALX 400 which Dublin Bus had ordered from 2000. This bus was allocated to Ringsend Garage and is still there today. The route however is not. Most of it became route 1 while on the northside the bit to Larkhill became the 44. The bus stop it is calling at lists many bus routes no longer with us, including: 1 (the original route to Pigeon House), 2, 3, 11A and 121. Note the bus stop is also in blue and an older style compared to the one their today. 12/10/2007
Phil Boldman took this shot while hi-railing the NYC's Danville secondary on July 22nd, 1974. At this time, it was Penn Central and would soon be Conrail. This view was taken from MP 68 looking north towards Sheff at an old location known as "York". This location was between Sheff, Indiana and Free, Indiana. The bridge in the distance was used by the "York-Richland Elevator" and was located at MP 67.65. The NYC did have this location in the timetable as "York Switch" and "Hawkins", but only in the early days. This bridge was abandoned when Phil took this photo. The line was seeing little use and in 6 years, would be hosting Milwaukee Road trains.

It is the last (or second last) year of the millennium and RV 403 is standing in the rain on Abbey Street. The bus is seen after arriving with a 43 from Swords. The 43 route number was first used in 1925 when the DUTC launched their first bus route. It ran between the city centre and Killester. The route was subsequently merged into the 54 and 54A around 1939. The number was resurrected in 1985 for the current route which runs to Swords via the Malahide Road and Kinsealy. Whereas the 41 and 41C terminate in west Swords, the 43 terminates on the eastern side in Swords Business Park. Also, unlike the 41s which operate out of Summerhill Garage, this route operates from Clontarf Garage. Over the years it has had termini on Beresford Place, Abbey Street and Eden Quay. Currently it uses Talbot Street.
RV 403 was delivered new to Dublin Bus in 1998 and was withdrawn in 2008. It then moved to the UK and was in service on their school duties until at least 2018, working in the Birmingham and Daventry areas.
Although this livery had been around for around 2 years at this point, it is worth noting the bus stop is still in Dublin Bus green. 06/02/1999
Since it’s still Thursday for a few more minutes, here’s another from the same set! Hope you like!💕
The last time I remember seeing an SD60M on the Shoreline Sub was in 2007 when four of them powered a ballast train, so, yes, you could consider this appearance of a three-windowed SD60M on the point of a Sheboygan hopper train a bit of an anomaly in 2014.
It is 1998 and a low-emissions trial is taking place with Dublin Bus. The previous year saw five low-floor single-deckers delivered to Dublin Bus. These in themselves were a novelty as they represented some of the first wheel-chair accessible buses in the fleet. The W-Class minibuses were another example. VL 1-5 were operated out of Donnybrook Garage and were mostly confined to routes 1,2 and 3. Passengers could identify which services they were on by the departure times in the timetable being written in red.
VL 6 arrived in 1998, and unlike the other 5, used natural gas as a power source. The trial was run in conjunction with Bord Gáis and the bus was used in service on routes 1,2 and 3. Whereas the other VLs survived with Dublin Bus until 2009, this one left the fleet in 2000. 19 years later, in early-2019, a number of buses have been on trial in Dublin and Cork to test alternative fuels to diesel that could reduce emissions. At least one of these trial buses involved natural gas.
Route 2 was a shortened version of route 3, providing extra capacity on the southside and only going as far as Parnell Square on the northside. It was merged into the new route 1 under Network Direct in 2012. O'Connell Street, 09/05/1998
LOL!....I can't believe how old this pic is but here we are being Throwback Thursday.
I was actually on my way out to....of all things a horse race with some like minded friends...from memory I had the best time and way too much champagne on the day.
This image was my all time highest viewed until I was told to remove it due to new content rules!
And I can also add that this suit never actually made it into retirement. Just couldn't bring myself to throw it out. It still gets a trip out once in a while!

...Don't tell me you didn't know that my street work can now be seen at my secondary Tumblr blog, www.tumblr.com/blog/smilefromthestreetsyoushoot. Amazing, isn't it? Enjoy it then, why not? Of course you will. I know it, you know it.
For Throwback Thursday this week we are going back to 1988 and a bus route that is no longer with us. KC 111 is seen loading up on Abbey Street with a 51A to Beaumont Hospital. This route survived just over twenty years before being abolished on the 24th April 2009. The route was one of those oddities within Dublin as the rest of the 51 family served Clondalkin, but the 51A came no closer to it than O'Connell Street and Abbey Street. It ran to Beuamont Hospital via Ballybough, Griffith Avenue and Grace Park Road.
The bus has also two pieces of extra branding. One is for the DART as it was also used on DART Feeder services, though the 51A was not one of those routes. The second is the Dublin Millenium logo towards the rear which was to mark 1000 years of Dublin City in 1988.
Abbey Street has also undergone some change since then too with the lane the bus stopped at now the only road lane and the two in the forefront now used by the trams on the Luas Red Line tram.14/04/1988
It is 2012 and the sun is setting on RV 568 at UCD Belfield. The bus is operating route 17 from Rialto to the DART station at Blackrock. This was, and still is, a popular route with students of the college.It is one of the orbital routes in Dublin and connects places like Crumlin, Rathfarnham and Dundrum as it crosses the southern part of the city. However it was one the routes that the NTA put up for tender, and by the end of 2018 it will probably be operated by Go-Ahead. If not in 2018, it definitely will be in 2019 as that company takes over the orbital routes.
The sun literally did set on RV 568 in 2012 as Dublin Bus withdrew the last of the Olympians. A Donnybrook bus when the picture was taken, it spent its final weeks in Summerhill before ending its days in service in October.
This bus stop in UCD Belfield is also now gone, and is the location of a lake with some ducks and swans. 18/01/ 2012
This week we are going back seventeen years to 2008, and to VT 13 on O'Connell Street with a service on route 46A to Dun Laoghaoire.
Route 46A started running between the city centre and Cabinteely in 1926. Certain departures were extended to Dun Laoghaire in 1929. In 1932 the primary destination was moved to Goatstown, and in 1936 it was extended to Dun Laoghaire full time. In 1999 the Stillorgan QBC opened, with the 46A becoming a high-frequency route. In 2010 it replaced route 10 on the northside when it was extended to the Phoenix Park via the North Circular Road under Network Direct. That change also saw all services on route 46A taken out of Stillorgan village, which this bus is going via. The route ceased to operate in January 2025 when it was partially replaced by route E2 under Bus Connects on the southside, and route 11 on the northside.
VT 13 was new to Dublin Bus in 2005, being one of twenty tri-axle double-deckers delivered that year. In 2007 Dublin Bus received fifty more. It was withdrawn in 2018 and sold on to an operator in the United Kingdom. The bus had just been repainted prior to this picture being taken, and unusually emerged with yellow above the front window and not black. Another member of the class also received this treatement, but it did not last long and both did eventually receive black paint there.

This week we are going back thirty-two years to 1994 and to KD 306 parked on Aston Quay, dressed for route 50.
The DUTC started running the first route 50 between the city centre and Crumlin, going via Dolphin's Barn, in 1925. In the early-1990s it reached Willington Roundabout. In mid-1994, possibly a week after this photo was taken, route 50 was replaced by new City Imp route 150.
At the same time a new version of route 50 was introduced which operated between the city centre and Tallaght. In 1998 that southern terminus was extended from Killinarden to Citywest. In 2006 the city centre terminus was moved to Ringsend Road. The route ceased to operate in 2011 under Network Direct changes in the Tallaght area.
KD 306 was new to CIE in 1983. It was withdrawn by Dublin Bus in 2000, the last year of KD operation in the capital city.

How they haven't reverted back to this styling, I'll never know. I get a big nostalgia rush just looking at these things, partially because they remind me of all the classic films they were used in like Home Alone and Ferris Bueller.
I had a friend send me this old pic not long back from many many years ago, i think it was one of two places but I'm not sure who's flowers they were but here I am.
This week we are going back fourteen years to 2009, and to VT 33 in Skerries on route 33X. Route 33X was an Xpresso route that started operating between Skerries and Dublin city centre (later UCD) around 2000. It was not a long-lived route and ceased to operate in 2002. It then made a return in 2007, using the M1 motorway from Lissenhall (north of Swords) and the Dublin Port Tunnel. When it came back it was not a very frequent route, with one departure in each direction, Monday - Friday. That changed in August 2009, when part of the viaduct at Malahide Estuary collapsed, and the railway line into Dublin from Drogheda / Belfast was closed. An emergency timetable saw a 33X running nearly every ten minutes in the mornings and evenings, with some during the day too. When the railway line reopened in November 2009, the 33X retained a good service frequency and today in 2023 it has about five return trips eeach weekday. 2009 also saw the evening departures from the city operate to Balbriggan (as the buses went via Balbriggan from Skerries to access the motorway on their return trips to the garage). As part of the expansion in services during the railway line closure, nearly every Dublin Bus garage provided buses to operate these services. This is how a tri-axle VT that was normally found on the Blanchardstown / Lucan routes ended up in north County Dublin. VTs became very common on the 33X for a while. VT 33 in this pictures was actually working into Dublin and not to Skerries as the destination suggests.
VT 33 was new to Dublin Bus in 2007. Originally allocated to Phibsoro Garage, in 2010 VT 21 - 35 moved to Donnybrook Garage as part of Network Direct changes to routes 46A and 145. VT 33 was withdrawn from service around December 2021.
