Crikey, what happened to the bus fleet (Brum 9 and 12x routes?)

Try 4508. That's the best 45xx I've driven. It's a screamer if you get the right driver.

Lol, I rode it a WB a while ago, it sounds the same as any other Gemini, unless AG have gave it a transplant  :P

It's a mint one. The steering wheel when I last drove it two years ago was brand new, all the controls felt light, the drivers seat was bang on, the cab was clean and it pulled strong. The cooling fans worked properly. So they'd basically come on and come off. It's a fast one. I remember rallying it up Marsh Hill on the C lol. Entering Marsh Hill at 30mph and having the fortune of nobody wanting to get on or off and by the time you get into Erdington, the thing is roaring. Lol

Will have to go hunt it down soon then lol. 4529 is my favourite 45** at AG. Closely followed by 4503/4/5/6/.

Lol I still remember you overtaking me in 4698 with fans roaring and with kickdown.

What's the difference between a Gemini 3 and a streetdeck?
From what I can see the Gemini 3 is the offering on the Volvo chasis.
NX have Wright Streetdecks on the 9 in Birmingham not Volvo Gemini 3s?

The Wright Streetdeck is a complete bus (both the body and chassis) built by Wrights: http://www.wrightsgroup.com/datasheets/A3%20streetdeck%20Update.pdf whereas the Gemini 3 is a Wright's body (very similar to the Streetdeck body) but on a Volvo B5LH or B5TL chassis: http://www.wrightsgroup.com/datasheets/A3%20B5TL%20Gemini%203%20UpdateGR.pdf
