Rail replacement bus

A rail replacement bus was introduced in 1958 and served Beauparc for a number of years though no longer does so. The replacement route continues to this day as Bus Éireann route 188 (Drogheda-Duleek-Slane-Navan with a latter extension to Trim). The nearest stop to Beauparc is now at McGruder's Cross (junction of the road leading to Beauparc with the N2 road).
