(29 Aug 2017, 6:44 pm)S830OFT wrote I sampled the StreetDeck demo today, a few things to note:
1. The Destination screens now work with white coulor in the blind
2. There spelling of Scarborough is Scaborough
I hope Arriva do try and spell destinations correct as it is strange how they spelt Middlesbrough and Scarborough wrong.
Apart from that its a good bus, although is not really suited on the X93.
I caught it on the 09:50 X93 from Middlesbrough this morning and rode it to Burniston, my thoughts are it was not ideal on this route, 48mph maximum speed on a duel carriageway is pretty poor IMO, it handled Ormesby Bank and Birk Brow not too bad but it really didn't like the hills round Robin Hood's Bay and Fylingthorpe, didn't seem too bad on other parts of the route though.
I've uploaded a video of SK17HHC which was recorded between Fylingthorpe and just outside Cloughton: https://youtu.be/NbQjxTNeP3w
BTW - despite looking a few times, I didn't notice that Scarborough was spelt incorrectly, at least the paper display which said 'Middlisbrough' above the screen has disappeared.
