It looks like 9108 was parked up in Park Lane at some point today, for driver familiarisation.

(27 Aug 2015, 4:48 pm)aureolin Speaking of Streetlites, I've noticed from my trips over the past week that they've sharp developed really bad rattles. I was sat at the emergency door seat on an 8 last night, and I had to keep my knee pushed between the door because the rattling was that bad. The one I had the other night was a similar story, with one of the seats further forward vigorously rattling every time the bus hit a bump.

(27 Aug 2015, 4:51 pm)R852 PRG I've also started to notice that some of them aren't as smooth as they were on their first day in service (I struggled to fault them at the time). My disliking to them is more from an enthusiast's point of view than a customers; they sound uninspiring and feel too plastic. That's my opinion on them. Haters gonna hate.
