I had a trip on one of the ex-Yorkshire ones in Newcastle on the 100 recently. Sounded like an absolute dog, ride quality was poor, had more rattles than Mothercare, and it felt like I was at a rave because the interior lights were going mental, flashing off and back on again.
Don’t get me wrong, I like the ALX300s from an enthusiasts’ perspective and the Sunderland bus scene has been boring since the introduction of the gas buses that replaced them, but passengers deserve more. They deserve better.

Should be plenty of spares available from all the withdrawn ones.
