No, you have to take part of the staircase out

Oh right, I would have thought the floor would have butted up to the staircase & the staircase be mounted directly on to the chassis to make things like replacement less of a job.

Will it replace one of 4203-24, or do Coventry need an extra bus?

I look forward to seeing it. I presume that it will help cover the painting of more of the 483* batch as well maybe?

It's initially covering 4776 going away to be the first bus in the fleet fitted with the new ticket machine and contactless card scanner

Will they still accept cash with these new ticket machines?

[Wright liberator]

Are they still going to use old wayfarer printer or having new one aswell as machine ?

Still accepting cash.

new printers

New printers? Thought they were only replacing the wayfarer, didn't know the printer was changing as well.

The new tickets look very smart. I was given one while in Bordesley Green recently.

Do you happen to have a picture of it?

[Adam 404]

Do you happen to have a picture of it?

Whilst I do have a picture of it, I was told not to show it. I will describe it however, it has a silver hologram on the left hand margin with a fluorescent orange narrow right margin. The base of the ticket is a greeny blue colour with logo at the top and small written details going down towards the bottom.

I must stress that it was still in the design stage when I saw it and obtain one of the tickets however.

The ticket machine looks quite like an iPad, very different to a wayfarer.

Hope that is useful.
