Title: All NXWM Geminis.
Post by: MW on November 26, 2015, 10:28:29 PM
Looking at Tony's fleet list, 4475-4491 are H43/29F, and 4492-4534 & 4635-4679 are H45/29F, and then 4687-4696 are H43/29F, but 4700-17 are H45/29F

Is this a fault in the website or is this correct? I was under the impression that all were H43/29F? Can anyone clarify this?

More controversy, as Tony's site reckons 4680-86 are C42/29F, but buslistsontheweb says C42/28F?

Buslistsontheweb also states the Dundee batch (SP54) are H45/29F, whilst 4635-79 are H43/29F. Hmm.

Edit: CH I should say, not C.

Well, it might be an error or they have minor differences, like WB's gemini's, they have different doors and vents at the back.

EDIT: It's an error, look on the individual bus pages, they are mostly the same.

No, there are three different seating capacities

Tony, not the Wright Gemini's this time - but on a similar theme. The 6701-58 batch of MMC's in list form is shown as H43/30F. But the individual webpage for each bus shows them as H45/30F, can you clarify which is correct.
