Does anybody know why this is? Seems like a strange request - and if it is an option, why do more operators request not to have it?
(14 Jun 2016, 9:03 pm)South Tyne Lad wrote I cant answer fully, Though I believe it was offered as a limited option for the Gemini 2, And the same bare grill was used in Transdev's former Route 36 Volvo B7TL's Rebuilds around 2011.
I don't think the option is offered anymore in the Gemini 3/ Streetdeck and why should it, The Wright Badge is barely noticeable.

(10 Jul 2016, 10:10 am)Michael wrote How many more are GNE getting?, i can't remember if you've said before that's all.
(10 Jul 2016, 10:24 am)Dan wrote I've not said how many will be bought by Go North East, but I have said how many could potentially be released for cascade:

(02 Aug 2016, 8:17 am)Michael wrote Brighton & Hove Buses are pleased to announce improvements and changes to a number of bus services from the start of our winter timetable on 11 September 2016.
Once again, a number of these are the result of suggestions made by our passengers and drivers, as well as Brighton Area Buswatch and a number of local community groups.

803 - SK16 GWE
814 - SK16 GWW
820 - SK16 GXC
(20 Aug 2016, 4:09 pm)Dan wrote I understand further Scania OmniDekkas will be migrating north to Go North East in early September, once delivery of the new Wright StreetDeck is fully complete.

Seen in Blackpool today ahead of it's participation in the annual Bus Driver of the Year competition.

Sorry, I don't know much in regards to this bus and how many they are etc.
(13 Sep 2016, 8:07 pm)Michael wrote Have all of Brighton's Wright StreetDecks arrived?
(15 Sep 2016, 9:52 am)Dan wrote They've all arrived but two have yet to enter service.
Brighton & Hove have withdrawn the final eight Scania OmniDekkas due to cascade to Go North East as a consequence:
626 - YN04 GJY
627 - YN04 GJZ
628 - YN04 GKA
651 - YN05 GZL
653 - YN05 GZP
654 - YN05 GZR
664 - YN55 NFC
661 - YN55 NFE
I'm led to believe four will be collected by Go North East next Sunday, and a further four the Sunday after.
