[GB] Megabus Astromega

The latest toy for the Megabus operation. These new coaches are destined to replace the remaining Skyliners deployed in the services.

They look like those serving in US and Can, are these the same type of Vanhool?

From what I read the North American ones are TD925. What difference they have to the Td927 variety, mechanically or anything else, I haven't got a clue.

Just been to Vanhool website and found the differences there:-

Rear Overhang
TD925 3095mm
TD927 3360mm

Overall length
TD925 13145mm
TD927 14100mm

Seatings
TD925 85
TD927 95

Luggage Compartment
TD925 6.5CBM
TD927 7.2CBM

Both model can be fittied with DAF Euro 5 or MAN EURO 4 Engine, however the power ISO of the DAF Engine on TD925 is 375kW whilst TD927 is 340kW.

I am not sure, but an article does mentioned some of it

http://www.busride.com/article.asp?IndexID=815

The powertrain features the Cummins ISM07 450BHP with the Kidde Fire Suppression System in the engine compartment as standard. The ZF Astronic Twelve-Speed Automatic with intarder is standard, while the Allison Generation IV (B500R) optional. Automatic Traction Control (ATC) and the heavy-duty two-speed fan clutch also are standard equipment.
“With all that comes standard, there are only a few options,” says Oakman. “The extras make the $615,000 price tag even more attractive.”

純粹跟圖,睇完唔好扣分...:lol

昨晚坐m11返倫敦,去到bus station見到megabus出呢批新車行m11真係當堂好驚喜下...:victory:
(因為諗住本身都已經少左坐megabus,要坐呢批車只好去oxford tube)

行車好穩定唔太嘈,車箱環境舒服,而且準時到步...

呢次16鎊都算比得值回票價...:handshake

上次坐neoplan訓著之後又熱又焗又遲到,但今次坐新車訓著竟然覺得有d涷.....:o





小弟覺得好cool的內籠燈光設計,感覺都幾新鮮....:D
