(11 May 2013, 9:44 pm)Brandon wrote I've been looking at some photos of the Borismaster (New Bus for London). Is it the intention for these buses to operate all the double-deck TfL-contracted bus services eventually or just a few? Does anyone know if there's a list of services that these buses are planned to run on?

These buses seem to have divided opinion. There is a huge cost behind them, but they do look very striking. From videos I've seen on TV, they seem quiet inside but rather cramped in the downstairs. Perhaps on TV it's difficult to get a feel for the space inside unless you're actually there, but I'm sure the three-doors are managing to slash boarding/alighting times, which is what you need when schedules are already hit by city traffic to deal with. I'm hoping to get down to London at some point over the summer and try them for myself

I really like them. I've had 4 of them now. They're really well designed, and look incredible inside and out. Definitely the best modern bus I've been on. I don't think they're cramped at all really, apart from the seats you lose downstairs for having two sets of stairs and three lots of doors (incl. the platform at the back).

Taken from the TFL website: "The first two buses have left the Wrightbus factory in Northern Ireland, these will be followed by another four next week and a further 594 over the next three years."

I'd really recommend the trip down there.
