    Does any of you remeber when coca cola sent the DB coca cola bus to your school and you went to the factory.

    The bus even had a coke machine on board similar to the old 7up bus which was fitted with a vending machine.

    don't forget donnybrook's KD353 which also carried the Coca-Cola AOA in the early 1990s.

    Just noticed this thread now..

    My Dad (Bill) was the driver who would pick up the kids from the schools.
    I must show him this thread and see if he remembers!

    Three buses have recently received an AOA for Coca Cola. I have so far managed to find two: AV 415 (Ringsend) and AX 587 (Phibsborough).

    Cheers. I thought I was doing well when I got two and just needed to get the DBrook one. And then I read that Phibsborough I had a second one. My success rate dropped from 66% to 50%. :)
