Where Next?
Here's another photo from Ballymun. This time in Poppintree. Route 220 is a disaster. It gives you the Grand tour of Finglas & Blanch and isn't very regular. The hours I've stood at bus stops in the rain waiting for one of these fookers.

The Big 1000
Armed Cash Van Crash Coolock/M1 Flyover
Nothing to do with buses but I was in the right place at the right time for these photos. An Armed cash van convoy crashed in to another car today. A woman had to be cut free from the car, it took the fire brigade about 20 minutes to free the woman. Armed Army and gardai kept a close eye on the van, which was on its way back to the Brinks money depo nearby.
A Shiny New AX on the 17A
Now here's something you don't see everyday. One of Harristowns shiny new AX,s on the 17A. This route rarely gets a new bus so its about bloody time. Lets hope the granny's enjoyed it, because there wont be another one around for a few weeks ide say!

Bad DMD Day
A RV in Ballymun having a bad DMD day. The Dmd actually looks better in the 'inside out format'. The Flats in the background of the photo above will not be there much longer! I have to get a few photos of buses around Ballymun before the tower blocks go, always makes an interesting photo when there in the background.

To Da Airport Bud
My god, whats this? People walking with suitcases from Harristown towards the airport... I kid you not. I really did observe a couple of young wans getting of a 13A near Harristown with suitcases heading towards the airport complete with beer & alco pops in hands. A long walk ahead of them ide say the driver had the last laugh!
Below: Heres a bus that really does go through the Airport and wont leave you a mile outside it!

27 A Handy Little Number
I was around route 27 area today observing the goings on. Well what a handy little bus route this is. Buses running nearly every 5 mins sometimes up to every 2 Mins! With a nice QBC all along the Malahide Rd this is a great route in my books. Didn't manage to get any AV,s on it today just RV,s. Two photos taking earlier today in Coolock North Dublin.

Another One For The Megarear Collection
All quite at the 16 Terminus
Paid a quick visit to the 16 terminus in Santry tonight hoping to catch a few new AX (ALX400) buses, instead i caught an RV and a dual door AV (the one we photographed the other day with the megarear). The terminus is in a Quite Residential location not too far from Santry Garda station and near the DCU also.
Old Timer
Spotted this old timer in Ballymun earlier today. Its reg number was 79D-1057. At first i thought it was one of the MVPSI ,s twin deckers but it was too old for one of them. Well its a change that the usual yellow and blue deckers.
Aaron Donohoe has left info about this bus in the comment section below.
Thanks Aaron!
A Jaunt Around North Dublin.
Jesus whats up with the weather lately? Rain rain and more rain. A quick jaunt around Santry/Ballymun and Killester this evening. Strange to note route 31B still mainly operated by RV class deckers, one would think that AV,s would be the main stay of this route by now. Nice to see the 42A getting some AV class deckers as well. Weather playing havoc with the photos today, but sure what could one do.

Route 104
I got reports yesterday of an RV on the 104. I went chasing it but never found it. Clontarf seem to be slipping on allocations. Here's a photo today of an AV on the 104. A horrible day in North Dublin today with heavy showers and short breaks of sunny spells , not very good weather for taking photos.
