Fleet Standard Livery | Dublin Bus | 2024

Описание: A video showing Dublin Bus "Fleet Standard" livery, recorded throughout 2024.

In 2003 Dublin Bus introduced a new livery of blue and yellow, known as "Fleet Standard". Over the following years, all the Public Service Obligation (PSO) buses received this livery, replacing the previous collection of liveries that included CitySwift, City Imp and "Core" livery (cream, orange and blue). In 2021, Transport for Ireland (TFI) introduced a new green and yellow for all PSO buses. Dublin Bus operate a system of repainting their buses every four years, which means the end of 2024 saw Fleet Standard only survive on a handful of buses. The AX Class and VT Class will probably see out their days in this livery, but the GTs and SGs will be repainted into TFI livery, and at the start of 2025 repaints of the EV Class resumed. It is possible the surviving members of the VG Class will also be repainted.

This video was recorded throughout 2024. Most of the GT and SG Classes that feature here were subsequently repainted. The AX, EV, VG and VT Classes also feature in this video. 2024 was the last year for substantial number of buses in Fleet Standard livery. 2025 could see the end of the livery, twenty-two years after it was introduced. The video is broken into bus types, with timestamps listed below.
