Yourbus

[Ash]

Diamond have undertaken conversions on some of their acquired buses before but that was when the go-ahead group owned the business and the buses were the RxxxFFC ones. How much would it cost to convert a citaro to single door bus I'm guessing quite a lot being a mercedes vehicle

Yourbus selling the 03 and 53 reg mercs in this weeks route one-admittedly dual door but converted a few of these would be fantastic as a few more mercs for the rotala fleet would always be good

They are all dual door, which is one of the reasons they are being sold. They have been replaced by the former Wessex 04 plate B7RLE's

The other reason being that the depot they are based at at Tuxford is closing too

You can't convert them to single door as there is no offside emergency exit.

 Interesting article, that shows how rapidly Yourbus have expanded in a short space of time and the levels of investment in new vehicles that have been ploughed in to the business. The average age of the fleet is just 3.1 years

I wonder if they traded in the dual door Merc Citaro's against the new E200's? (see my post above)
