Around 1896/7 the DUTCo commenced issuing its tramcar crews with uniforms, probably at the same time it introduced its first electric services, though in the case of horse-car crews, it only saw fit to issue the new uniforms to conductors. The first wave of closures came in 1938, with the Dublin to Lucan line succumbing in 1940, despite being a mere twelve years old. The tracks of the DUTCo met those of the Dublin and Blessington Steam Tramway Company at Terenure (5ft 3ins), the Dublin and Lucan Steam Tramway Company at Kingsbridge (3ft 0ins), and the Dublin Southern District Tramways Company at Haddington Road (5ft 3ins). Whilst through running from the D&BTCo's line was a theoretical possibility, this was effectively prevented by Dublin Corporation's opposition to this mode of traction. Unlike the situation with the old DSDTCo, the C&HoHTCo and the DUTCo had a close working relationship, probably best evidenced by the reciprocal running arrangements - often a bone of contention between tramway operators - which were clearly worked out years prior to construction and electrification. Tramcars initially worked through from central Dublin (Nelson Pillar) to Howth, with DUTCo crews giving way to C&HoHTCo crews at Dollymount.

This was very probably due to the influence of William Martin Murphy, who was not only chairman of the C&HoHTCo up until its first meeting, chef coats but was also the owner of the company that built the tramway. Like other Irish tramway systems. It's maintenance free, but if you elect to paint it, it requires yearly maintenance like any other painted outdoor surface on your home. I get up every weekday morning and either head off to work, or work at home. The Club provides its members with a home away from home: school lab coats a sanctuary for those seeking comfort, hospitality and elegance, with a level of quality, service and… The company changed its name in March 1944 - to the Dublin United Transport Company - to better reflect its service offering. Surprisingly, it only constructed one new line (as opposed to a connecting line), westwards from its Rathfarnham line out to Dolphins Barn; however, this only opened in February 1896, by which time the company had decided to convert the entire system to electric traction.

These badges were introduced some time in the mid-1930s, and motormen were purportedly required to wear them, though I have only seen a single photo where one is being worn. Another depot shot, this time at Blackrock depot, with conductors, motormen and two inspectors - photo undated, but probably taken in the early 1930s. It was definitely taken before 1936, as the man on the extreme right (Joseph Lawlor) retired that year; he was born in Ballywilliam in County Wexford in 1872, and when the photo was taken, he would have been a senior motorman. A conductor, a motorman, and an unknown individual pose for the camera - photo undated, but probably taken in the early 1940s.

A DUTCo motorman at the controls of Tramcar No 3, a former Dublin Southern District Tramways Company vehicle, on the Dalkey line - photo undated, but given the good condition of the tram, albeit now with advertisements and a route board (on the rocker panel) including Nelson Pillar, probably taken in 1898.

The second phase of the electrification essentially involved doubling of single lines and the construction of connecting lines between the main routes, all of which were completed by the mid-Edwardian era, the DUTCo by that time operating around 54 route miles.

The DUTCo started life with an assortment of 137 horse trams and around 31 route miles of 5ft 3ins-gauge track. Although uniform jackets remained single-breasted throughout the entire life of the tramway, with only minor changes being made to the cut across the years, following the Great War, the caps were changed to a much more modern style of tensioned-crown peaked cap, uniform store the crown being unusually wide. As much as $3 to $5 dollars for button replacements. How much does schooling cost in Dubai? It's not so much that Abby's anti-establishment vibe would fall flat in a straight-laced law-enforcement environment. Meanwhile, the DUTCo's freight services fell victim, in 1927, to the congested streets and competition from lorries, which could deliver door to door. The DSDTCo opened its newly electrified line on the 16th May 1896, services terminating at Haddington Road in Dublin, the corporation having not yet agreed to the use of electric traction within the city.
