(29 Jun 2015, 8:02 pm)S813 FVK It seems to be wearing mascara around its lights. Looks so strange.


(29 Jun 2015, 8:02 pm)Dan Aye, 4911 was at Saltmeadows today. Still hadn't received light clusters.

Makes the bus look like it has been in an accident. Don't like the look of it at all.

Pleased it wasn't just me who picked up on it. Tongue

I agree, doesn't look very appealing. I imagine some customers could pick up on the rather scruffy-looking appearance of the vehicle. But, at the end of the day, a Wright Renown is a Wright Renown... Tongue

At a guess it'll be the bus wash taking them off... They can be a bit violent at times! See Darlington's Dart fleet when they had them!

(29 Jun 2015, 8:44 pm)MrPottski Update from Darlington, 4644 is currently under repair after an accident in the yard. Ironically it hit 1302, which hasn't moved in weeks. 7536 is off the road, also following a prang, and FINALLY, 1461 has arrived! [Image: 1063bda81c4fa2395493a11a3a63ad93.jpg]

Looks like 1461 has been in the wars itself!

They also dropped off whilst in service, I saw them hanging off a few times and here is a photo I managed to get in 2008.

As have quite a few Lowlanders.

Geminis must have had a bad few days - whether VOR or having to come off service mid-day.

It'll be a regular in two weeks time, but then you'll be reporting the tenth bus as odd as it'll be a standard-specification Pulsar......

There was a Gemini sat in Stockton depot yard on Thursday so who knows.

Fancy that. A route branded bus becoming regular on the route it's branded for.
