Where are the perception and optics police when you need them?
Except the fact it's not open top, PM's B9TLs are very youthful compared to the rest of the B9TLs and even some of the newer StreetDecks & B5TLs, given they've had relatively charmed lives just pottering around the doors to speak on work that even a StreetDeck could easily handle.
When GNE electrify the 21, wouldn't surprise me if the current StreetDecks ended up on the 307 & 309 with these B9TLs either filling gaps or allowing more leggy B9TLs to take a backseat role (i.e 6043-48 or 6071-85).
