Throwback Thursday (379)
This week we go back thirty-two years to 1991 and Dublin Bus RH 56 parked at Bus Aras on Store Street, between duties on route 42. This route started in 1925, running between the city centre and Coolock. In 1953 it was extended north along the Malahide Road to Kinsealy and Malahide. In 2005 it was extended from Malahide to Portmarnock, where it still runs to today.
RH 56 was new to Dublin Bus in 1990. This Leyland Olympian was withdrawn in 2002 and sold on to an operator in the United Kingdom. It was finally scrapped in 2014.
Bus Aras is the main bus station in Dublin for regional and long distance services operated by Bus Eireann. It was designed by Michael Scott and opened in 1953.
