(01 Aug 2025, 4:08 pm)PH - BQA wrote The SB200 Pulsar has to be right up there as one of the best low-floor single decks produced to be honest, they rarely put a foot wrong and have consistently performed well on demanding work since new. It's a shame it went to Yorkshire and blew its engine, but 1407 was a genuine missile for years and constantly bailed Ashington out on express boards.
Must admit I've never been a big fan of the Pulsar as imo they're a downgrade on the Commander which always felt like they were better built, less rattles etc. 1401-3 were (or are) beasts aswell, even until the end. It's just a shame the North East never got more.
The Commander -> Pulsar -> Streetlite just pretty much sums up Wright in recent years with 2 downgrades in a row.
Speaking of them does anyone know if they're still going, as a few got converted to trainers if I remember right?
