The AEC list is arranged in order of the chassis model type, detailing the chassis model, body type, date new, original owner/fleet number/registration, last known U. K. operator (in the case of secondhand vehicles), all known Irish owners and disposal. This page does not include passenger vehicles not known to have served with Irish operators, or any trucks produced by AEC. Further data will be added as time allows, and corrections or updates to the information on these pages are also welcome. So far 1,256 vehicles are known to have worked in Ireland, and it is hoped that this page will serve to be as accurate as possible a record of all AECs in Ireland.
