Noel Posted August 19, 2021 Posted August 19, 2021 (edited) Sad to see weeds growing out of the roof of that iconic building. Maintenance? Edited August 19, 2021 by Noel 1 Quote

Too modern for a fussy oul fossil like me, Bandon Tank! (But, now, if it WAS an actual Bandon tank, now that would be a different kettle o'fish!) 1 1 Quote

DJ Dangerous Posted September 30, 2021 Posted September 30, 2021 (edited) Are the 29's running in two different liveries concurrently? Edited September 30, 2021 by DJ Dangerous Quote

Yes, and have been since Methusalah was learning her spellings….! Roughly half of the fleet remain in the old livery. Quite a few still have the old “three pin plug” logo, as well as the new “origami” one. 1 1 Quote

Roughly half of the fleet remain in the old livery. That's awesome! So apart from being stunning looking no matter what, they wear two shades of beauty! Can't wait for a model of them. 1 Quote
the Bandon tank Posted September 30, 2021 Posted September 30, 2021 I have to agree, I really like them to. 2 Quote

At the risk of straying into religion, Methuselah was not a 'her'. Say ten Hail Mary's and you stand a chance of slightly less time in Purgatory. 2 Quote

Galteemore Posted September 30, 2021 Posted September 30, 2021 (edited) Isn’t this what proper Dublin suburban looks like? And closer to Methuselah’s time, too….in all seriousness, I’d love to see a retro livery on these things. As a kid, the old CIE livery had a pleasing resemblance to a liquorice allsort….would love to see it again. Edited September 30, 2021 by Galteemore 4 2 Quote
jhb171achill Posted October 1, 2021 Author Posted October 1, 2021 Yes, superb stuff! And I too was (am) a big fan of liquorice allsorts..... 1 Quote
