The newer full-sized buses were too big/long for these routes, but the WVs are just perfect. <br> <br>Thus routes 59, 44B, 161 are now lowfloor operated. <br> <br>However, it must be pointed out that this took place within the context of a fleet reduction - the 3 WVs transferred from Ringsend are not being replaced at that depot, while two of the three transferred from Clontarf are being replaced by double-decks transferred from Broadstone - taken from the pool of "euro" duties that provide extra rush-hour cover, again without replacement. <br> <br>8 single-decks are being replaced at Cony Road this week (AD-class) by the new double-deck buses which would have operated the expanded 746. <br> <br>Steve O'Shea<br/><em>[posted by: Steve O'Shea]</em> http://busrage.com/forum/topic/1667#post-1667 Mon, 05 Jan 2004 07:12:19 +0000 Anonymous 1667@http://busrage.com/forum/ an article on <a href="http://www.allboutbuses.com" rel="nofollow">www.allboutbuses.com</a> showed that donnybrook got WV`s from clontarf and ringsend .they said the MV minibuses are being replaced.are all the MV`s being withdrawn or are donnybrooks MV`s going back to phibsboro?<br/><em>[posted by: robbie]</em>
