RE: Dublin & Ireland
Took a trip to Athlone today, always something to see there. The town service has seen a significant improvement over the years but oddly services finish at 20.00 or so, most Irish towns with a bus service have scheduled services after 23.00. The Local Link and regional bus service network continues to grow here, with Bus/ Train service the focal point for services. ![]() EA47 John Broderick St, Athlone 8 November 2025 ![]() EA8 crosses Athlone Town Bridge 8 November 2025 ![]() EA54 Southern Station Road, Athlone 8 November 2025 A quick explainer here. Athlone was first town to have an all Electric Urban fleet, Limerick is the second, on a much larger scale. Sligo should be next but the charging infrastructure has been delayed. As a result the Sligo fleet (SO registered EAs) are currently operating in Athlone. I only saw two of the native WH registered EAs out, but they rotate them through the day/ week. ![]() VB515 departs Athlone Station 8 November 2025 - Years ago route 70 operated a couple of times a day between Dundalk, Drogheda and Galway. That route has declined in importance but the 190 is every two hours (hourly between Trim and Drogheda) with journey lengths of up to three hours. ![]() VB444 Southern Station Road, Athlone 8 November 2025 ![]() 232LD249 Athlone Station 8 November 2025 More here: https://transportsceneireland.smugmug.co...ember-2025 |
