MCV車身重量，是否輕過Wright？
He doesn't understand Chinese
>> Translate:
Is the body weight of MCV Evolution lighter than Wright Gemini 2? 唔知有無車尾相可以睇埋呢？先謝了！:handshake Thanks Yoram.
Sad to see I can hardly tell which operator is running the route just by seeing your picture.:( 原帖由 smal 於 2012-12-21 14:32 發表 http://www.hkitalk.net/HKiTalk2/images/common/back.gif
Thanks Yoram.

MCV車身重量，是否輕過Wright？
只用呢架VM1比較的話,係比wright重30kgs現時倫敦新出的wright b9係11910kgs
令外架車係借比london united做各方面數據收集,
暫時為期6個月...並會分別調到旗下3間分廠行走唔同路線...
:) VM1 is not owned by London United, so maybe the garage staff forgot to put the company logo :lol
London United did not buy volvo B9TL double decks, and their experience with Wright bodied volvos was not very satisfactory - I don't know why :(
VM1 is supposed to be at AV for a few months, and then, maybe, move on to V garage for further comparisons. The intention at the moment is to run it on route 27- due to recieve E40H in late Jan 2013.
So far, VM1 has been used for one week; not all bus drivers are trained to drive the bus, so it may be taken off the road for short periods, till a suitable driver is found for it.

Yoram The upperdeck windscreen looks like MCW-bodied Atlantean !!:D :D 喺英國拍照好難㗎....
