(22 Aug 2014, 5:36 pm)aureolin Yep. Its always been the case too, and I really can't understand it. I always remember going out for the Scania demonstrator that was used on the 21/22 years ago, and being told by an enthusiast that it had been sent back. Complete rubbish as it turned out to be.
More lately though I had a kid on the Citaro demonstrator telling me they'd ordered a load of B5TLs for the Toon Link. 2 and 2 together and coming up with 78932962.
I remember getting so annoyed at the Metrocentre rally earlier this year.
One guy was telling everyone (who was seemingly believing him) that Go North East were going to be getting some ex-London Geminis during the summer to replace all of the Olympians and Volvo B7TLs. This came from the same guy who told me, in April 2013, that Go North East had ordered some Volvo B9TLs for the Prince Bishops and they were being built as we spoke. I'm still waiting to see them...
Mind boggling...
