Looking forward to seeing it, should be intresting to see how its designed
Hopefully see some in Sunderland for the services which often require double decked vehicles - such as services 16 and 20 - with the single decks being cascaded to other routes at Sunderland.

I wonder whether SNE's Walkergate and Slatyford Depots have enough room for a gas fuelling facility?

Wouldn't mind them on the 16.
Not sure for the space in the Newcastle depots but i do think they will get gas buses in Newcastle in the future, although i still think they want to make Sunderland fully gas operated.

Last Paragraph
"Scania will also offer a diesel double-deck chassis at Euro 6, powered by a 250bhp nine-litre engine. This is the same unit which will be used in the Irizar i2 and i3 single-deck buses built on Scania chassis, with Mr Oliver stressing that despite earlier reports suggesting a Cummins unit was to be fitted, Scania’s own nine-litre engine is to be used in both."

What? You mean the posts that swap every vehicle in the fleet around to increase the PVR on the 309/310 by 2?!
In all seriousness though Davey's posts lighten my day up.
