Every bus can tell a few stories, of passengers, of journies, of life itself, but the storyteller bus tour went a little further with nightly tours ( that was folklore too ), seen above is converted Leyland Olympina 99D532 ( RV 532 ) of Dublin Bus Conyngham Road Garage.

"About Traditional Irish Storytelling
Ireland's Only Traditional Storytelling Bus! Listen to stories of a time gone by when Pookas, fairies and giants roamed this land. Hear tales of how the Vikings were outsmarted by three Leprechauns, of epic battles and dangerous quests, of magic spells and true love! Up the airy mountain, Down the rushy glen, We dare n't go a-hunting, For fear of Little Men! "
