Yesterday I spend the day roving Nottingham which is a haven for all things Scania. Something I've wanted to do for a while is sample their reasonably rare Scania Omnitowns. A small bit of nostalgia that caught my eye was the bell-presses, pictured. The last time I'd seen one in that style was on a Mk2 Lynx.
My initial though was they were just whatever East Lancs had lying around the time when they were built (2004). However I later rode on a 2011 Omnidekka which featured the same stop-bells. Does anybody know if/why this is something Nottingham specify? Also of note was the plate at the front of these Omnidekkas identified the body as an Optare, along with all the glazing being branded Optare. While I understand ELC eventually became Optare, I never realised the 'classic' Omnidekka design (i.e the style of GNE's ex-Brighton stock) was eventually an Optare product.
Sorry for the apparent blur in the picture. It turns out as well as being quirky as you like, Nottingham's Omnitowns have the ride qualities of a breeze-block.
