Slightly behind schedule, this somewhat new bus is climbing its last kilometre. VWD430 entered revenue service only in the past month, which is curious because BÉ had already long ago put VWD460 and VWD461, buses several months newer than this, into revenue service.
It looks like the Saturday Plus schedules will soon be gone, however. Rumours have started that regular Monday-Friday schedules will be back from 8 June. Given that the restrictions that were put in place to slow down the coronavirus spreading are being loosened up, it was expectable. One thing that remains to be seen, however, is whether Bus Éireann will return to its full service on their commercial long-distance "Expressway" routes. A few weeks ago they were forced to introduce reduced schedules after it turned out that their cash reserves are ending, and keeping a full Expressway schedule supposedly cost them up to €750,000 a week...
This photo was taken during exercise and well within the 5 km radius from my current residence.
