I know that could be said for the 47 due to the fact that a B5TL was trialed and they ended up purchasing dealer stock B9TLs but, do you think they ordered the B9TL because of the cost or due to preference or even commonality at Riverside depot?
I'll bet they got those B9s at a good price...
Anyway, the Streetdeck arrives at Crook on Tuesday and we'll be looking to get that out on service as soon as possible. On paper, the E400 sounds the better option as it has the bigger engine but the proof is in the pudding, and that is scheduled to arrive on the 14th of this month
