Throwback Thursday (288)
This week we are going back to 1990 and Dublin Bus D 812 at the route 67A terminus in Maynooth. This route started around 1988 and was an extension of route 67 from Celbridge to Maynooth, the 67 itself dating back to at least 1934. The 67A lasted until November 2010 when Network Direct extended the 67 fully to Maynooth from Celbridge. The route is due to cease in late-2021 when the Bus Connects C-Spine starts.
D 812 is seen at the old 67A terminus in Court House Square. it subsequently moved closer to the railway station on Straffan Road where the 67 terminates today. However, Bus Eireann still refer to the present terminus as the 67A terminus in their timetables.
D 812 was delivered new to CIE in 1976. It was withdrawn by Dublin Bus in 1994. 16/07/1990
