[UK] The end of Olympian era? The Warwick Unibus.
The Warwick Unibus, probably the one currently with the oldest buses allocated among allStagecoach Unibuses, has been operated dominantly by Volvo Olympians for the past 14
years. However, this "Olympian era" is going to mark an end with the delivery of a new batch
of 10 ADL E400s to Leamington garage for the Unibus service.
The new buses are expected to be on the road within weeks and the Olympians are expected
to withdraw then. Perhaps it's high time we pay a tribute to these loyal servants for the University
over the past decade:
呢10部新E400個車身色彩類似城記咁...
全紅底,車尾太平門附近有藍色橙色''彎刀''至車頂....
:D 黎幾部其實長左幾多....:o 其實近呢幾年英國低地台化既進度
真係可以話快得驚人
唔知係咪英國普遍d巴士乘客多數都係長者,
又或者係推BB車既媽咪
所以對低地台巴士既需求特別高
我試過好多次搭中step entrance
好多人, 特別係推BB車既媽咪都埋怨點解冇低地台車
反觀香港
有好多舊區仲有唔少路線真係連一部低地台都冇的
d人都唔覺得係咩一回事
我都跟番張Stagecoach Olympian先

都係得10.3m長姐... I think DDA requirement for buses being accessible will start soon (couple of years time), so all buses have to be accessible by wheelchairs or something ie SLF required

會唔會只係因為服役年期冇香港咁長, 換車週期短, 所以先至有呢個現象咋 聞說批新車仲會設有 wifi 服務...:loveliness: 原帖由 bnr34 於 2012-5-26 21:28 發表 http://www.hkitalk.net/HKiTalk2/images/common/back.gif

其實唔係
先唔講routemaster呢d特例
以前倫敦堆MCW Mk1都行左廿年咁上下先換，而家倫敦堆歐二歐三Trident 2同B7TL都走得七七八八
其他唔少城市既ECW車身olym都行左廿年先話退，但係而家十三四年車齡既olym都面臨退役既危機，你見樓主貼嗰啲係S字頭，即係大概98年既車黎
而且換車方面個個城市都唔同
so far倫敦應該係換車換得最快既城市，唔淨係因為要全低地台，而係要不斷upgrade車輛排放，於是要不停入新車，歐三巴士已經差唔多唔可以留喺倫敦以紅色車身行倫敦線咁滯，比香港重快換車
於是市面多左一大堆舊些少既低地台過第二d城市，當然就順理成章加快其他城市換車既速度
呢個應該係另一個加快換車既原因
