Throwback Thursday (72)
This week it is a trip back to 2013, to a scene that has changed a lot. RA 216 is seen on Suffolk Street operating the Dublin Bus City Tour. In February 2017 this was rebranded as DoDublin and a new livery was introduced. The tour itself underwent a revision of its route in May 2017.
RA 216 was introduced to the fleet in 1995 and was the first RA to be delivered in CitySwift livery. In 2001 it joined the tour fleet before being withdrawn in 2014.
Suffolk Street at this time was the main route for buses making their way from the southside to the northside but Luas Cross City works saw it closed off and it will probably never reopen again to traffic. Most bus routes were diverted via Pearse Street. 24/05/2013
