There is hardly any noise of the air been released when the doors open and is quite and smooth in general but when it sees a bank...bloody hell! It goes into snail mode. Around 5mph and sometimes even has to stop and restart to give it an extra boot.

When 3825 was at Chester, many drivers told me it was one of the smoothest buses in the depot.

Do they have a number of buses VOR, even if this is so could they not of just asked for a few cheeky loans..

Or which other services will get it? (expect for the routes which get new buses this year?)

While I understand it may be irritating for some when people request information which is relatively easy to obtain, we mustn't always assume everyone has the same knowledge.
If one has the time to make critical comments when forum members ask for assistance then presumably one also has the time to help. There is no need to be dismissive; if you don't want to help - ignore.
I have witnessed many discussion forums succumb to unnecessary snarkiness when posters ask questions - please don't let this forum go the same way.

It causes delays, and very few passengers use it from Newcastle.
