Dublin & Ireland

RE: Dublin & Ireland
Hello.
Two pictures from a recent trip to Cork.

VWD68 Infirmary Road 10 September 2021 - The 220 was the first of the city routes in Ireland to go 24 hour, even before Dublin - a source of great pride for Cork people... We have had plenty of 24 hour services over the years, mostly operating to and from Dublin Airport. For example Aircoach operated 24 hours between the Airport and the City for years, until Covid struck. In 2019 Dublin Bus started operating the 15 and 41 on a 24 hour basis and followed by the 39A last year.


SL2 South Mall 10 September 2021 - These are unique to Cork and their days are probably numbered. The Cork City fleet has become dominated by double deckers (Geminis of all sorts) and the SLs/ MC (Merc Citaros) make up the single deck component. There may be some VWL - wrights single deckers left, but I haven't seen any recently.
