RE: Go North East: Latest News & Discussion - March 2018
The streetlites are a cheap and nasty bus.the rattles people comment about,were rattles that were on these buses from new,when delivered.one of the main get on your nerve rattle is the emergency door,handle mechanism.it is so flimsy looking,and is sometimes a continiounus rattle while bus is moving.you can see the parts are light weight and cheap.surely wrightbus have a road testing facility,which would highlight this kind of thing before main production,as I see the rattling on brand new buses,as a fault in design.it does not look good in the eye of the travelling pubic to hear this noise on the new bus.you can expect this on buses after a few years.if this is happening from new,what are these buses going to be like after a few years.i persannaly cannot see them lasting as long as the wright renown’s, which GNE have just withdrawn,bar a couple left I believe.
