So there is a decreasing chance of getting a leather seated one?
Which ones are more comfortable, the ones with beige seats and blue poles or black seats and red poles?

I don't really think there's a difference in comfort but the 997 style seem to rattle more? Maybe something with how the bars are mounted.

Some of them, 4770 - 72 in particular rattle from front to back, top to bottom. I prefer 4763-68 but all of them bar 4776 really need a good clean up, more vehicles which adorn vandalism from years ago plus standard wear and tear.

4776 needs cleaning too. Downstairs at the back has some terrible window etching.

They all have odd seats where leather has been replaced with moquette particularly the hard seats over wheel arches and at back downstairs.

They are still nice and I do often get comments from happy passengers when I drive them saying how "posh" they are!

It's a shame to lose the leather. Would be nice if they recovered the best seats from the lot and used them to keep one or two fully leather but I know it would be a nightmare to do!

4776/4737 spend majority of time doing college contract rather than
Service work.

[Westy]

Why is this an issue for 3 years B10Ls was being used on 34 to Stowlan with the majority displaying
Bilston via darlaston. 1446 is better than nothing allocated

Just spotted 1475 displaying 34a Darlaston in town.

Does that settle the argument?

[Chris2301]

Is the 311/313 still going to double deck operation in the foreseeable future?
