Yes, the vehicles were bought reasonably discounted, but have they been value for money? Have GNE used the money wisely?
They've had their positives and negatives. They've managed to reduce overcrowding on service 58, but service reliability has reduced compared to when the newer '08'-reg rigid Citaros previously used. I do think, however, that the service will be able to cope with single deckers, if and when they arrive, regardless of what kind they are - it works alright now with the 'Northern' Volvo B10BLEs used so frequently.
