48001/2 are just bog standard slimlines. 47721/22 are still first choice Honister buses due to their specification; increased ground clearance, altered rear bumper, larger diameter wheels and the rear axle has a lower ratio to aid hill climbing. Interworking PVR is three during summer so 47921 is the third bus, again it's a bog standard Slimline although is Cummins/Voith combo so not great for the route.
