Does anybody know when the VTs are going to be operational?
I saw one as serbhis on O'Connell Street tonight.

On what routes and times are they running?

All VT's are assigned to the 46A

Yes, in fact the VT's feature Dot Matrix Displays (DMDs) which unlike the latter RV's and current AV's do not have any route other than 46A programmed into them.

Not strictly true... they also operate the 46B.

I do wonder how much money DB spent on turning the 64/64A into the 46B. Honestly, if it ain't broke...

No offence but Al are you just out to cause arguments? You have gone off subject and for what? btw the 64/A were cancelled as the drivers and conductors refused to accept a pay deal to go OPO so instead DB cancelled the routes and soon afterwards the 46B started so... It was not properly broke but the 64/A were at a point of no return...

I was on VT3 today. Boarded up near Saint Stephen green and up near Dame St. I was standing! What an uncomforable piece of engineering! The seats are too solid. The ride quality is okay...but the looks you get are great! ;)Posted 2 years ago #

No offence but Al are you just out to cause arguments? You have gone off subject and for what?I think you're the only one arguing...? Starting an argument entails attacking some other poster's position, not going slightly off-topic.
BTW, I love DB's excuse thereof, if that's what that is. Makes not a bit of sense, which is par for the course. How can bus operation staff speak for the whole union?Posted 2 years ago # -
when will db put the vts on the 220 routePosted 2 years ago #

I doubt they'll be put on that route. Maybe once or twice on Trial.Posted 2 years ago #

Yeah, they're only on trial on the 46a at the moment, and I've heard they have problems with the doors opening and closing on their own!Posted 2 years ago #
