Ex Howard's Enviro400 has found its way to Galway probably with Lallys for Ferry Shuttle services:

Took a ride on a WH1 & WH3 and AH1 & AH2 on Saturday, both types pretty good and the green livery is a different take on the standard Dublin Bus version. Slightly prefer the Enviro 400's over the Wright/Volvo's and the interior of the Enviro400's seemed quite similar to those running with Go Ahead London at the moment.

Got to admit I do prefer the Wright bodywork Dublin Bus specify over the 'Stealth' type that's standard elsewhere too.

Hi,

Sorry I was updating the computer and forgot my password!

The Hybrids are on the 25 family of routes (25,25A,25B). The VHs have not appeared in service yet. Generally, people like the AHs, but after over 800 Wright Geminis, we are happy with a change!

Hope you had a good time?

Not a great shot, but one of the three VHs:
