Throwback Thursday (295) - a photo on Flickriver

            This week we are only going back nine years to 2012 and AV 166 at the Blanchardstown Centre on route 236. When the shopping centre opened in October 1996, it gained three local routes (237, 238 and 239) that initially served the surrounding areas of Coolmine, Castleknock, Mulhuddart, Ballycoolin and Luttrelstown. Around 2001 the 236 joined this local network, serving the Ballycoolin IDA park on a circular route. It only operated in the peak-hours, and was branded as FactoryLink. For a while there was a separate route 236 that ran to a northern terminus in Tyrellstown. Under Network Direct the route was reduced again to just the Ballycoolin circular in 2010. In January 2019 the route passed to Go-Ahead Ireland, along with the other local routes in Blanchardstown. It was also joined by a new route, the 236A.

AV 166 was delivered new to Dublin Bus in 2000. It was withdrawn in late-2013 and emigrated to the United Kingdom where it joined the Beaverbus fleet in Leicester. 31/08/2012
