    Anyone, maybe from Swords, know exactly where the 41X bus picks up in Swords heading to town?
    I checked Dublin Bus' website and it just says Swords Manor and I know that bus only picks you up at certain stops so I'm not sure where the actual stop is:confused:

    This bus goes from the Manor down the rathbeale road (were JCs is) then it goes down the seatown road were the school is (instead of turning onto the main street), takes a left at the roundabout and all the way up to the travelodge were it takes the left towards the motorway.

    The best place to get it is along the Rathbeale road. €2.30 and it takes about 40mins to get to trinity from the rathbeale road(I think it goes to UCD)


    Strangely enough I got it in applewood one morning but I think the driver was new and took the wrong turn.

    If you're at the other end of Swords some go from the Forest Road (behind Eddie Rocket's)

    Dizzy only 2 goes from the forrest road in the mornings.
    The bus is usually 3/4 full by the time it gets to the Fingal Community College on the Seatown Road, well the 7:45 one is anyways.
    2 go through Glen Ellen too the 7:30 and the 7:50 ones.
    Basically get it anywhere between the Manor and Jcs and you'll be sorted.

    Presumably you meant it takes a 'right' at the roundabout - if it took a left, it would be heading north.

    It's stops at every stop on the Rathbeale Road. I used to walk up to the stop before the JC's stop, at Pinegrove/Abbeylea area to be sure of a seat!
