There are probably better shots of these but this one has done its duty and is now on the scrapheap so a reminder of what happens at the end - of the week:-)

It's full of busses now: www.google.ie/maps/@54.80161,-7.774958,3a,75y,137.81h,76....

I see the fleet number has been removed making it harder to identify. I'm convinced that it is 18, which is running at Fintown, Co. Donegal. The windows with the sliding vents have been replaced with wind down windows. www.antraen.com/enthusiast.php

... Another part which Dublin theatregoers considered she made her own was the Widow Quin in ‘The playboy of the western world’ by J. M. Synge (qv). However, the critic Hugh Hunt (qv), assessing her career, noted that she played all her famous character parts in the same manner: ‘Large, warm-hearted, with a permanent twinkle in her eye . . . Maureen was not a great actress, but she was a superb performer. For over twenty years she was to play herself on the stage without varying her characterisation by a twitch of her eyebrow, to the utter delight of her public’ (Hunt, 118). The Dublin audience's appreciation probably prevented her development and froze her mannerisms; the American critic George Jean Nathan, writing on the Abbey's 1937 American tour, called the company ‘a caricature of its former self . . . [it] is obviously unable to control its fundamentally talented but personally over-cocky actress, Maureen Delany, and to prevent her from indulging in an outrageous overplaying, winking, snorting, and mugging that wreck any serious play she is in’ (Newsweek, 27 Dec. 1937).
