I happened to notice the Gemini's are returning back in Hybrid Green/Yellow moquette (Well 7002 atleast). I would have thought they would have gained the new 'red dot' trim?

They are now gaining red dot moquette, 7002 was a one off which Dundee Corp 7001

I didn't realize Dean Finch would get involved in decisions such as those

when he was up here on a visit he was shown the new colours and took an instant dislike to the blue interior  and green seats .

Strange how the bus passengers are rarely asked what the environment they wish to travel in. After all drivers have a cab committee to give feedback on their environment. I wonder how wide Mr Finch's experience is of passengers expectations.

With the above withdrawals, there are 6 x B10BLE's left in service i.e. 7159 / 66 / 67 / 73 / 76 & 7179. I believe these have to be removed from service by 31.12.15 due to being none DDA compliant.

Doubt Tridents, Dundee is mainly a Volvo depot. The most logical President replacement would be by cascading 51 plate Volvo B7TL/ALX400's

I don't normally do advance transfers, but just in case anyone needs them for anything

4053; 4056 & 4113 will be heading to Dundee on the 17th December, so get them while you can!

They have been chosen as they are three with the best paintwork / interior
