    Clonsilla/Coolmine/Hartstown/Hunstown/Whitestown/Blakestown/Blanch SC/Ongar = 39/39a

    Ongar/Clonee/Littlepace = 70

    Corduff/Ballycoolin/Mulhuddart/Damastown = 38/38A

    Tyrellstown/Ballycoolin = 40D

    All bus's except 40D/39A go through Blanchardstown Village.

    The 70 doesn't go through the village either, if you miss the last stop (just after the m50 roundabout) you end up in Castaheaney, as I discovered to my dismay at 11pm one night!

    There is no train to Blanchardstown. Coolmine and Castleknock are the nearest stations.

    Blanchardstown village is only a couple of minutes walk away from Castleknock station; the hospital is about 10 minutes walk as well. The shopping centre is about 10-15 from it or Coolmine station.

    Castleknock station is in Blanchardstown. It used to be called Blanchardstown and Castleknock station.

    By 'town', I presume Dublin City Centre is meant. You can't use Bus Éireann route 109 to get from Dublin City Centre to Blanchardstown, as Blanchardstown is a pick-up only stop - if the bus is full, the driver is going straight for the first set-down stop. Dublin-bound, Blanchardstown is a set-down only stop for BÉ.
