And I've seen what happens when drivers wing it on that Quarrington Hill loop!

Not everybodies cup of tea, but spent alot of time on them when they were on the Red Kite, and later the Toonlink X30/X31. Always felt the power when sitting at the back on the way to work.
Yes, they were a nice ride. Like the citaros, I find the rumble more soothing than the whine of some other vehicles. The seats were grotty but comfortable (unlike the citaros!) and they felt sturdy.
