(25 Feb 2017, 12:33 pm)Dan Well now that it's at Deptford - yes, here's some photos of 5284 after it was returned to Saltmeadows Road following repaint and refurbishment.
JP6004 saw it while it was returning to the depot following testing of the Next Stop Announcements on service X5.

(25 Feb 2017, 1:11 pm)Dan They aren't fast charge. I got about 15% battery in an hour's charge - so about average for USB chargers on a bus.The only thing that isn't streetlite in that merc are the bell ringers!
The seating is red and navy blue - the same colour as present on Streetlites with e-leather seating.

It does look good, though.
Have the engines being touched up at all? I remember 5291 especially was like an elderly couple crossing a road when attempting to pull out from Stanley Roundabout. That was their major fallback from my perspective.

(25 Feb 2017, 1:22 pm)JP6004 Yes, I don't like the Mercedes signage on the Streetlites eitherI escape this one because the new engines are daimler powered, which is sort of historically relevant to mercedes benz!

You said the only thing NOT Streetlite about the refurbed Mercedes is the bells........I said yes I don't like Mercedes signage (on the cab door) on the Streetlite either.
Not as funny when you have to explain a joke...

Big improvement to the yellow message - hopefully that is the style that they have chosen to roll out as opposed to the style seen on 633. A shame that there is no WiFi blob there though!

Has drivers seat gone leather too. Heard most drivers dont like leather seats especially in summer thats why the solos and new streetlites have got the driver seat as fabric.
Can we have these back on the 58 where they started instead of the Versasa?
