I'm very interested to see the Enviro 400 citys once they arrive, possibly my favourite looking DD out there today. I'm planning an ambitious trip that would hopefully cover First Manchester's Busway Streedecks, Stagecoach Lancashire's Gold 125 Enviro 400s & Blackpool Transport's Envrio 400 Citys in one day!
It is good that they are pushing forward with Palladium, although I have to say I was a little underwhelmed by the Citaro's, seats weren't particularly comfortable, there was limited charging points available throughout the bus and at least when I sampled one the next stop announcements weren't in operation (think it has announcements).
Looking forward to the Enviro 400 City Bus entering service on the 9, hopefully they'll be in service when I head there in the summer.
