Portlaoise (Bus), 01-09-2017 (Electric Picnic Arrival Day)

As in previous years, local operator Martleys have provided a shuttle service from the railway station to the site 11km away, which is very well used and gives the opportunity to get shots of vehicles normally used on school work, and therefore less easy to photograph.
There are two locations in this gallery; first at the station, observing boarding operations, and second on the N80 just outside Portlaoise viewing vehicles heading home after dropping the revellers.

I'm not sure if this was on Electric Picnic duties or local work, but this O814 is seen in the queue of traffic. Previously with Carrolls, Tullamore it was new as V399SVV to Wright, Goring and was imported to ireland by Ardee Coachtrim.
