Dublin Commuter 07, in response to your post in today's observations about this, I see high spec EVs could be on the cards. Why didn't Dublin Bus opt for a higher spec VG for the Airlink, or why not have ordered similar spec VGs to the VWDs? From a passenger perspective, I see absolutely no problems with the VGs. I have been on some Airlinks, and including VG47 on the 123, and I saw nothing wrong with them. I have noticed though that the driving poisition seems to be mounted fairly high compared to other buses in the fleet, but this shouldn't be an issue. Perhaps it's to do with maintenance? I recall an article in a recent edition of Buses comparing engines of both an Enviro400 and a Gemini. It seems that different components in the Enviro400 engine are much easier to access than those of a Gemini and some parts are quicker to replace and fix in the Enviro 400 than in the Gemini. So it could all be down to this sort of thing?
