Tour Inside Dublin Bus (Donnybrook Depot 2/9/2023) (Tour Around & Buses Also Abandoned ME22)

Hi Everyone
Just To Let You Know We Asked The Depot Manager If We Could Come And Take Pics & Vids Of Buses Here At Donnybrook The Manager Gave Us Dublin Bus Hi-Vis's And To Not Walk Outside Paths So If Your wondering if that's trespassing it's not as it's with permission also at the back you have ME22 which was a minibus new to Dublin Bus In 1994 Abandoned At The Back Beside another GT

Nice vid plus I was there one day

[@bigadventurewithbuses01]

Thanks it was my first time

[@DC_Transport72]

Nice! How did you manage to get in

[@bigadventurewithbuses01]

Thanks By Asking The Depot Inspector

[@MrDangerhere]

Do you know if the night service buses that run thru Dublin city centre have security on them? Thinking of applying as a driver but don't like the idea of picking up drunk passengers after midnight in Dublin city centre.

[@bigadventurewithbuses01]

You would have buses with assault shields and cctv cameras also a alarm on the ground also you wont be put on nights unless you ask your depot manager if you can be trained on nitelinks because you will be first driving during day times at first few weeks

[@MrDangerhere]

@@bigadventurewithbuses01 thanks a million. But are you saying everyone would have to do the night runs eventually? Like after a month or two? Any reports of violence or mayhem on late night buses?

[@bigadventurewithbuses01]

Only some people can do night shifts if they get trained but first they have to join shifts during the day also it depends where stuff can happen it can be anytime anywhere

[@MrDangerhere]

@@bigadventurewithbuses01 did you notice any parking facilities for drivers cars in the Donnybrook garage?

[@bigadventurewithbuses01]

To be fair you had some parking but you had loads of spaces for the buses

[@BusDrivinginDublin]

Was this Donnybrook 1 or Donnybrook 2? Also geez I have never even heard of the ME Class before.

[@bigadventurewithbuses01]

Im not sure which one was it

[@BusDrivinginDublin]

@@bigadventurewithbuses01 I don't know the difference between Donnybrook 1 and Donnybrook 2. I think it's half and half of the depot or something.

[@Joshuatyrrell6000]

Ax 527 to 532 are rare

[@bigadventurewithbuses01]

they arent they are stored there

[@liamoconnor2718]

the ME is very old. withdrawn for good i supposed.

[@steeviebops]

This one was used as a ticket sales bus for the Nitelink service. Can't see it coming back again though. I remember them when new in the City Imp livery. Some ended up in Tralee I believe.

[@bigadventurewithbuses01]

[@BusDrivinginDublin]

@@bigadventurewithbuses01 How was it locked, or did the Inspector say you can't go into it?
