you have:

MK1 ulsterbus, like 2589
MK2 Ulsterbus, like 2583
Translnik, like 2449

Citybus MK1, 2306 when complete and 2415 (duel door)
Citybus MK2, 2446 when complete
Translink, 2531

Thanks for your e-mail Phil but it has me totally puzzled.

Are you suggesting six liveries or are you telling me the type of RE's we have got as my understanding is that all four are very late models, one of them apparently one of the last in service - I myself have not seen them yet but they are currently being prepared as dormancy always has some latent problem and we want to make sure they are ready for the road and as usual a tribute to Ulsterbus and their maintenance.

If you are suggesting six different liveries that is fabulous except I do not know the difference and if someone could give me some photos of each livery that would be super. Send photos to busmuseum@hotmail.com.

It is our intention to paint all four immediately on arrival if it is required so we have four super looking RE's and of course 2531 in its Translink.

I should have added that with regard to the two operational Bus Eireann we will probably keep those in that livery and 2187 will make up the sixth of the Northern batch. She definitely is early Ulsterbus but her paint job is pretty good.

Phuil you have a pretty good collection of photos so could you help please and any further comments welcome.

am saying there 6 different liveries, the fleet numbers i had put beside them are vechiles that are in the livery. I will take a look threw my photos that arent online yet and see what i have got

So Michael your saying these four res are in an Translink depot?

Thanks Phil for your livery notes on the RE and I think your six are a superb selection and that is what we will aim at.

It would, in my view, be absolutely wonderful to have seven liveries here - six Ulsterbus and one Bus Eireann and to be able to line the fleet up.

In the interim we would welcome photos and please send them to busmuseum@hotmail.com.

Michael are you saying these res are in some Translink depot?
