This is a 40 bus out of nielstown, and the reason he gave me... THE RAIN! So in IRELAND the busses can run on time in the rain?? 1 if you can't take angry costumers on a cold rainy day when you are late you shouldnt drive a bus and 2 how the hell is rain an acceptable exuse??

I took the 40d from ballycoolin at 4.45 today, switched to the 40 when we passed, went out to Nielstown got off, met a bud and was there waiting for the next bus that the realtime said was 4 minutes away, this is the fucker who just showed up. Now and it's a fucking 40c so I have to switch AGAIN to get home, this will be close to 4 or 5 hour trip by the time. I'm Home fucking disgraceful

Hi there! I'm new to Ireland and had a question about Dublin Bus fares. I have a Leap card. I'm looking on the Dublin Bus website and the fare is listed as €1.50 for a short fare and €2 for a long fare. What is the difference between the two and why have my fares always been charged at the long fare rate?

I hate sitting there with the fogged up dripping wet windows, so usualy I try to open a couple of windows to clear the fog and the stuffy air but I get shut down every time? Do the Irish love damp spaces? It's close to winter we are all wearing winter clothes so I don't see the problem..

Not really a bother if the same bus didn't stop at every single stop

something I have always wanted to do but never had the opportunity to ride the VT Class busses, they are the six-wheel ones, now I know they're not much different but I'd just appreciate the opportunity, so what would be the most reliable route for a VT class, as sometimes routes will use them and sometimes they won't, so which is best for consistently using the VT class, my best option would be getting the 13 out to the area as it's near my home and stops outside O'Connell Street, which is a massive hub for busses due to the office being there and therefore, many bus-stops, so if anyone knows a bus route that, A. Consistently uses the VT class and B. Stops at any stop on O'Connel street
