I agree that Broadstone need more expressway coaches, but I don't think that they need to lose that many commuter coaches. If some of them were sent to garages such as Limerick, Galway, Sligo and Stranorlar, well then it would give Galway and Limerick more commuter coaches and Stranorlar and Sligo could lose some of their fairly old coaches. I think if Broadstone do with Limerick and Galway what Cork did with Dundalk(Monaghan especially) that Monaghan lose their VC's to gain commuter coaches.

If Broadstone got some VC300's from Limerick and Galway, well in my opinion(a regular traveler on route 32), the VC's would just end up on anything, and believe me, they are not very comfortable on a 4 hour journey. Bus Éireann are also spending a set amount on each coach refurbishing them, but I don't think they are exactly going to make them more comfortable, are they? I don't think garages should lose many buses, but Broadstone should certainly gain some expressway coaches without so much losing coaches. I do agree that they should be made give up their Tours buses, and instead of Eurolines getting some brand new coaches they could have 3 or 4 of the tour buses, just repainted.
