Throwback Thursday (369)
This week we go back thirty-two years to 1991 and KC 99 at The Square Shopping Centre in Tallaght. The bus is dressed for route 76. This route started operating between Ballyfermot and Tallaght (going via Clondalkin) in 1981, and reached The Square when it opened in 1990. For a period in the 1990s it was extended to Fettercairn but in 2012 it was moved back to The Square as part of Network Direct. At the same time the northern terminus was moved to Chapelizod. In 2019 the route passed to Go-Ahead Ireland.
KC 99 was new to CIE in 1984 and was withdrawn by Dublin Bus around 2000.
