Gardai not investigating. More info later. Thanks to The Wanderer for kind use of his pics. Richie. Only a few months now lads til 01st April Brilliant photoshop. Trams in tippex? Wow that livery might have helped keep the mk3 fleet in service until today (Ie their end of service life, not early in 2011). Edited June 23, 2023 by Noel Quote

Mk3s were not scrapped because of the livery change, they were scrapped because they were knackered. Also if the ICRs had been delievered in BnT, doubtful we'd have seen the climb in passengers carried since their introduction. Even now, the BnT livery is synomous with the public of late, dirty and unreliable trains. 3 Quote
