VWD 19 operating route 202/202A which although is in better condition than 18, unfortunately has a broken upstairs stop sign and it’s been over 4 months since 20 last tracked so it must’ve broke again
MC 303 still sounding sick

MC 303 which apparently broke down earlier today miraculously back up and running but for how long? Unfortunately 310, 311 & 312 haven’t been seen for over a YEAR same with VWD 37

MC 305 which returned in August after eight months off after packing in before Xmas seen operating route 223 to Haulbowline (NMCI). It is rumoured that the MCs could be leaving Cork for pastures new as most likely the 216 & 223 VWD conversion would effectively make them redundant.

A rarity that is of VWD 70 operating route 219 filmed a few weeks ago
VWL 312 with a faulty door
Переглядів 28521 день тому
VWL 312 with malfunctioning doors which reminded me of 5 years ago on the 214 I was on an SL with that problem but can’t remember which one
A rather unwell sounding MC 304

Sadly it looks as if the MCs are statistically the least reliable bus and a very poor spiritual successor to VWLs 120-144

i dont know if the 216 will be double decker from now on
i thought the mcs are staying?
@@liamoconnor2718 Maybe they could be used for the 223
@@Busandtrainluvr2k oh ok but 207A i dont know about the route. i think the 207A could be coach operated
Wel i dont know if it is
I'm going on it tomorrow
Nice video. In 2025, will there be those electric buses in cork ? Also do you think that the older vwds are going to be retired (2008s)
now vwl323 has'nt been in service since last month. i think the vwls are getting ready to leave
@@liamoconnor2718 if they leave it’ll only be the MCs in service and have gone from 5 years ago that we had SLs, VWLs & MCs to just MCs
@@Busandtrainluvr2k i know but for limerick it was different. in the 2000s Mcs and dwms were introduced then 2007 and 2008 the vwls came to roxoboro depot and then 2012 vwls came to roxoboro depot too since the 2012 vwls came to limerick the Mcs and dwms were gone from limerick in 2015

Are single deckers gonna be phased out in cork soon do you think

@@Busandtrainluvr2k I’d say they will eventually tbh. Population is always increasing and it seems like the demand for buses are also going up.

@@liamoconnor2718 nope I rode it last week I think it wasn’t tracking
I think they might be operating now on the 216
Spoke to a 216 bus driver the other day and apparently the reason they don’t run the double-deckers on the 216. It’s because of the road conditions along the route and not because of the lack of demand. This would make sense because every time I’m on a 216 it seems the single decker is not nearly enough to hold everyone. Although I did see a PAD operate on the 216 once
ya maybe november or december or next year the vwds will come down to cork then the vwls will leave
why are the six vwls leaving cork?
@@liamoconnor2718 presumably as VWDs 421-426 look set to come to Cork
if the mc's do leave cork then i guess vwls can be used for the 207A
@@liamoconnor2718 it’s probably unlikely as it’ll be more likely that the six remaining VWLs will leave instead
