CNG Bus in Cork!

    Has anybody else noticed a British registered CNG bus operating on the 216 route in Cork City? It's pretty easy to identify with the large lump on the roof for gas storage and "natural gas vehicle" printed all over it! I first spotted it on Friday and saw it again today. I'm currently researching biogas production at UCC and can't believe this had slipped me by! Can't find any mention of it on the web, including both the Bus Éireann and Bord Gáis websites. I'm thinking it could possibly be the MAN EcoCity demonstrator which had been trialled in the UK over the last couple of months. As far as I'm aware it's the first vehicle of its kind in the country, would love to find out what plans, if any, are being made for further deployment of CNG buses.
