    Wystan The "troubles" typically refers to the time from the 1960s to 1990s.

    This photo [between ca. 1910 and ca. 1915], would have been taken in the run up to the 1916 Easter Rising.
  • Peter Brown said:
    "The Troubles" originally referred to the period 1919 to 1922 in Ireland, following on from the 1916 Rising. It began to be used for the Northern Ireland conflict in the 1970s.

    the 1913 lockout,a period of street riots,and police brutality in dublin .may be the answer for this scene,as police escorts to coal deliveries and the trams etc' were commonplace, multitext.ucc.ie/d/Dublin_1913Strike_and_Lockout
  • Niall McAuley said:
    This looks like a car on the Hill of Howth tramway:

    Sutton to the Hill of Howth, which ran from 1901 to 1959.

What devilment are they up to now?

    In response to a DMP strike?

    From a police circular

    “Union is Strength The men of this station are hereby invited to attend a monster meeting to be held in the Ball Alley Street (C Division) on Thursday 31st. Chair to be taken at 5 p.m. sharp. It is requested that all night men and all others off duty will attend this meeting for the purpose of taking into consideration the signing of the memorial and also for protesting against the threatening language used by Chief Superintendent Corr on last Saturday evening.
    We will take this opportunity of demonstrating (for Captain Talbot's information and guidance) that we are not reduced constables but constables whose characters are unimpeachable.
    Issued by authority of C Division'
    29/8/1882”
