Throwback Thursday (397)
This week we are going back thirty-seven years to 1986 and KC 195 at Sutton Station. The bus is operating a service on route 102. This route started running between Sutton Station and Malahide in 1986, and was one of the DART Feeder bus routes introduced around that time. These routes were designed to provide frequent connections into the new electrified train service in Dublin. In March 2008, the 102 was merged with route 230, and the new route 102 started running between Sutton Station and Dublin Airport, going via Malahide and Swords. In December 2018, Go-Ahead Ireland took over the operation of the route.
KC 195 was new to CIE in Dublin in 1986. It was withdrawn by Dublin Bus in the late-1990s and joined the Bus Eireann school fleet down in Tralee. It was withdrawn by 2006.
