jhb171achill Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 Does anyone know where I might get a 4mm scale model of a suitable bus for the No. 10 route, as it would have been, and in the desert sand livery, for the 1976-1981 period?

jhb171achill Posted October 28, 2013 Author Share Posted October 28, 2013 The very thing, heirflick! I saw one on a display stand at blackrock yesterday, but it wasn't for sale. Really looked well - that's exactly what I'm looking for..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tarabuses Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 That looks like a very well constructed version of Jim Poot's kit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
108 Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 Van Hools would not have been used on the 10 in that period. It was a Phibsboro route and the only buses based there at the time were the older CIE Atlanteans. These were eventually partly replaced by the Bombardier KD Class from the mid 80's.

Tarabuses Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 In earlier days Donnybrook would have provided these buses for the 10 and other routes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhb171achill Posted October 28, 2013 Author Share Posted October 28, 2013 So for me, with a poor knowledge of bus history, what type of bus should I seek for what I'm looking for in the late 70s / 80s? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
