Throwback Thursday (319) - a photo on Flickriver

            This week we are going back thirty-one years to D 787 at The Square, Tallaght. The bus is operating a service on the short-lived route 74. The Square shopping centre opened in 1990 and a number of new routes started,  while others in Tallaght were rerouted, to serve it. The 74 and 74A started on the 22nd October 1990. Route 74 ran from Arthur Griffith Park in Lucan to Tallaght, via Neilstown and Clondalkin. However, neither it nor the 74A were very popular, and both routes last ran on the 27th April 1991 (just over two months after this picture was taken). The number 74 was next used on a bus route in 2007 and that one lasted a little longer before it was merged into the 15B in 2011. Bus Connects are proposing to use the number on a new route to Whitechurch at some point.
D 787 was delivered new to CIE in 1976. It was withdrawn by Dublin Bus in 1994 and sold for scrap. 16/02/1991
