2021 - Update 20:
Donnybrook's WS2 is seen in the NTA livery operating Route 44B outside Glencullen on the 22nd September 2021 (click on photo for larger version).
The roll out of the new NTA livery has been quite widespread now. One vehicle which took some time to catch up with was WS2. This entered service in the new livery on the 26th August 2021, but it was nearly a month before I caught up with it, the mountainous peak-hour only 44B being its route of choice. The livery suits these buses well, the short lenght meaning there is not a large unbroken flat canvas of green that occurs on the double-deckers. If the peak-hour only 44B is difficult to catch, a WS can often be found in the Belfield bus terminus, being used as a cleaning bus. As for WS1, this has been preped in Donnybrook for its painting into the new livery and should be expected back soon.
