As an aside, when the ex-route X1 Volvo B9TLs are refurbished, will they gain moquette like new buses or like East Yorkshire route 12/13 Volvo B9TLs?
Quite looking forward to seeing this VOLTRA spec and the livery. Quite an interesting choice of seat/headrest colours, but I bet look really good.

The red moquette looks so much fresher than the old blue one. I hadn't even noticed the vinyl sides were missing - maybe because the clashing colours of red and blue immediately grabs your attention.
