NX didn't want to spend money repairing it - if it was an E400 then I'm sure they would of fixed it!

Can't say I do, I've seen worse on older vehicles which have been fixed.

4520 is in a fleet with of over 150 Geminis plus parts are still very easily accessible where as there was a handful of omnicities with some of the parts that may be required are not very easy to find for such an old and rare type of vehicle. Surely common sense would tell you that!

4781's cab wasn't intact the impact even managed to ripple the offside panel behind the cab. There was actally very little of the cab where it should be on 4781.

BN reported on 29th May that 4133 and 4134 have been withdrawn but they are not in the May changes. Are they withdrawn?
