" and she was really surprised to hear they were 15 years old! Shame we cant say the same about the buses that replaced them ( Enviro 400 )
At least the E400's have a larger capacity, which is very handy, frequently see full loads leaving Newcastle as peak times.
The Enviro 400's are also probably more reliable, seem to recall the Prima's were always off the road.
