The order was very recent, being placed in December last year. Must have been, they've evaluated the BYD, ADL and Wright's and deemed them not suitable. https://www.route-one.net/news/nottingham-city-transport-orders-13-next-gen-yutong-u11dd/ For a long time, mine was the 43 to and from...

Really enjoyed this, grew up in Nottingham and moved away from the city after going to university. Remember the transition of NCT from cream and green, GO2 and network to today's branding. Just as a reference, NCT do have 13 Yutong U11DDs on-order for delivery later this year.

Thanks for that! Knew 90007 had recently been named as only seen her plates covered over, glad that's been cleared up.

Believe it's 90007

As per Nottingham City Transport Fleet News Facebook page, shouldn't be too long until we see the first Wright StreetDeck Ultroliner.

As far as I'm aware, Freightliner still have another 3 years on their Malcolm contract, unless this has changed?

I concur with this; the reason why I said this raises more questions than answers is while this report answers much of the what happened aspects of the accident, now its the question of why did this accident happened which we will only know once the full investigation is published.

Technically it would be the responsibility of the airline to fit the locking feature as per the voluntary advisory which Air India opted not to fit on the affected plane as it was not a requirement to do so, the US FAA did not deem this to require an airworthiness directive which would have made...

Hearing that automated announcements are now starting to be installed on the Class 170s. https://twitter.com/joshuabluedog/status/1674521873231511554?s=46&t=eHGcF720-AnHVl5nn7Ukaw

I think you need to give this whole "EMR is a shambles" claim a rest! It's frankly getting tiring hearing the same comment and does not contribute to this discussion. EMR is by no means perfect but credit where credit is due that they actually do operate a semblance of a service. Yes, COVID-19...

Towards the tail end of Central Trains franchise in 2007, Norwich - Liverpool was one of the 4 Citylink services that would either see Class 158s and/or Class 170s diagrammed , and could have been either 2 or 3 cars. 3-cars actually did well for capacity but even before EMT took over, 2-cars was...

Having travelled to Cornwall over a month ago and been on 32688 working the U4, I can definitely say the Geminis and the Myllennium Lolynes that often work the route are in very good condition for their age, certainly better than quite a lot of other operators considering that Kernow received a...

I believe he means the 1 and 26 which prior to COVID-19 were the only routes Nottingham City Transport gave change on so technically he is right to mention them.

I'm fairly certain 32756-32758/32760-32762 are still in active service and showing no signs of withdrawal just yet.

It's pretty much the norm in major cities to have next-stop announcements from bus operators, and Transdev is following that norm (though granted would have preferred a professional voice-over artist compared to local announcers but that's a personal choice). The point of the announcements is...

Nope, it's the original MML interior moquette.

EMR have released a video detailing the design process of the Class 810.

Given the mix-and-match nature of the Class 170s EMR will be inheriting (WMR’s 170s feature Lazzerinis instead of Chapman, same as the majority of XC’s 170s except 170397/398 which are Chapman), it makes more sense to refit the entire fleet to make them uniform, WMR’s 170s are not much changed...

An artist impression of what the Class 170s will look like after refurbishment, the vinyl poster applied on 170417. Based on the image, the 170s looks like they will be gaining FISA Lean seats as already found on Greater Anglia's Stadler fleet and WMR's Class 196s.
