looking forward to seeing what Ringsend get against their RV400's and 500's, which will more than likely all go. Will it be later DMD equipped
RV's, or some additional low floor buses.
Either way there will b e big changes in Ringsend, with up to 15 replacements likely to arrive. |

I don't know whether we should make any assumptions just yet. Don't forget, Ringsend are to lose 8 buses, so only some of these withdrawls may be
replaced, but not all of them. We need to wait and see what happens. But, as has been pointed out, there are big changes on the way. Now, Phibsboro are
transferring some of the late 4* and 5* batch to clontarf, so perhaps we may see some transferring to Ringsend. Conynham Road have lost RV597-599 and these
will not be replaced. I'm not sure if more are going from here. They are to lose nine buses and three are gone.

RM1986 are you talking about RVs or AVs in the late 400/500s? If its RVs, Phibsboro only have RV600s now well apart from RV448/456 in service.

Sorry, madaboutbuses. I was referring to the AVs. It's actually AV39-42, which are heading to Clontarf, and not the late 4* and early 5* AVs. Sorry for the
confusion

My apoligies, I meant RV506.
Meanwhile, WV1 & WV2 are (really) withdrawn in Ringsend along with RV533.

Will the withdrawn buses be sold on or will they just be left there to decay like all recently withdrawn Bus Éireann buses have been?

450-452 480-481 now gone according to a driver on the 40 this morning.
Be interesting to see how the bus gate works when it comes into action on the 40D. Seemed to be some reservations about it.

I saw RV549 and 550 on the 16s the other day, so the transfers must be the 540s and 550s, which ties in with RV538-540.

Route 111. lives on in it's current state for another week, so you may still see a vl or two over the next few days.
