Throwback Thursday (33)
This week we are going back twenty years to 1996. KD 160 is seen at Heuston Station. Although the front of the bus shows "Ballyfermot" the side number probably shows its true intent. Route 91 ran as required between the City Centre and Heuston, working inbound via Dame Street. It was designed to provide extra capacity on route 90 when required. With the extension of the 145 to Heuston a few years ago, route 91 silently faded away and no longer runs. Visible through the front door is the old magnetic strip ticket validator. These too are also now gone, replaced by tag-on machines. 18/08/1996
