I'd still say the seats downstairs on RV333 were safer than those upstairs, RM1986
At the moment, AV19 is the only one I can think of that I really would not like to be on. I avoided AV205 after one particularly bad journey where the condition was very poor last year, but it seems to be ok again now. AV15 on several occasions has broken down on me, which only AV206 otherwise has done. AV15 was VERY rattley on one occasion, but on other occasions before it, it would constantly cut out, restart, cut out, restart, cut out, but never actually stop. It was a bit of a precarious lottery coming to major junctions and turns on the Long Mile Rd/Crumlin Rd whether it would keep going. In that case, I'd have to say AV15 is the worst bus mechanically that I've been on. It's probably fixed now, I imagine
Bit further back, RA292 was an exceptionally slow bus - you could miss it and overtake it on the next service. RA199 (I was on it when a taxi crashed into it turning out of the Square. RA199 won the argument
). I was also not a fan of RA250-260 because of the cramped and very stuffy hot interior downstairs. Pretty sure it was the engine heat and associated fumes too, theywere all the same. AD56 was not a good performer either and RH110 and RH171.
