These vehicles are fitted with Euro 6 engine technology, and a total of twenty are due to be delivered to Lothian Buses later this year.

If anyone intends on going for photographs, I'd suggest you try and do it after closing hours (which is only 4pm - 5pm on weekends iirc), because the staff weren't too happy about me taking photographs - even though it was from outside of the fence.

Many of the Gemini double deckers have Gemini 1 body work on the front of the vehicle yet face lifted Gemini 2 rear body work! I was and still am so confused!?

(23 Jul 2014, 8:01 am)Dan wrote Just saw 309 on the 22 too.

(15 Aug 2014, 2:21 pm)Robert wrote In Edinburgh today:
A harlequin trident and a B9 gemini 1 on 26s
62 covering for a 7900 on 1
Few B7s missing off 'the lady Victoria' with un branded B7s and B9s in their places.

(15 Aug 2014, 7:02 pm)Robert wrote The lady Victoria brand must have been withdrawn as in my few hours at Edinburgh today, I didn't see a single branded bus on route 3.

(15 Aug 2014, 7:04 pm)Dan wrote Has been gone a few years now

If I recall correctly, service 3 was changed to do with something related to First? This is when they lost the branding - must have been in 2012.

(17 Aug 2014, 4:44 pm)Dan wrote There's one at Dunfermline.

(17 Aug 2014, 9:33 pm)tyresmoke wrote Was it inside as I don't remember seeing one in the yard today?

(17 Aug 2014, 9:36 pm)Dan wrote It was outside in the yard on Saturday.

I was on a coach fleeing past, so couldn't ID it. The lad who I was with noticed it first.
