Them era of Tridents particularly with the Voith gearbox weren't the best. ANEs (W*** RBB) were that poor they ended up getting pulled of the 602 after 3 years and replaced by DAF DB250 Lowlanders on the 308 after a further 2 years.

And Jesmond never sent them out on Sunday 306 boards. Was either a Volvo B10BLE or if deckers needed, a Volvo Olympian NC Palatine II / Volvo B7TL ALX400.
