WrightBus StreetDeck - Discussion/Sightings/Route Allocation (Not PN gossip)

[Squiz1971]

These buses will if a full order is commissioned will make a welcome difference/change to the current fleet IMHO. The crimson livery looks great on these Streetdecks shame about not seeing the front profile as well but beggars can't be choosers with the pictures lol. Can't wait to see this on the road on the 9

Looks excellent - the livery suits it perfectly (do hope this leads to more Wrights coming into the fleet again in the future).

Streetdecks* Haha!

I'm so happy to see the angular front; loving the aesthetics, the body and livery seem to conplement each other very well! I won't lie, i'm slightly disappointed that the Streetdeck hasn't got the staircase windows, but I guess it is what it is.

@WN i never saw that post i do apolgse

@GeminiFan1991 the 9 requires 21/22 vehicles for peak so no spare mmcs if ones off the road hence tridents popping up now and then. Streetdeck will be used on the 9 so the odd mmc will probably crop up on 141 etc. Tbh i wouldn't be surprised if nx orders more. But like @Nathan said it will most likely be assessed against the mmcs

[Jack6101]

I wonder if when it's gets evaluated and nx decide to buy more if it will go with the hole batch of street decks if they do order any more. I like how the bus has the curved line looks good. But where would the branding go if any was to be applied on these

3301

Impressive most impressive, just goes to show what an excellent livery can do for a bus, most streetdeck,s I,ve seen have been in hideous colours so not really helping with visual aesthetics.
I can see an order for these if the engineering side of things are ok.
Bring it on

Excellent looking vehicle , I repeat what I said in the pensnett thread

[BK63 YWP]

If you said it in the Pensnett thread, why start a new thread?

So it doesn't continue to fill pn thread. People opinions of the appearance and performance of the vehicle can go here

I'm slowly warming to the rather angular front design, the rear looks quite nice. Shame the upstairs windows look so short [in depth]. 3301 is a curious choice of fleet number - although the range from 3301 to 3999 is free, so plenty of room for a big order!

Tbh i think the earlier Streekdeck came out in awful liveries i.e. Brighton and Hove Bright green and the all Pink one for a northern company, can't remember which one. NX has proved that the crimson livery can be applied to any vehicle and look good. I like the front where theres more black on the front upper deck pillars and the destination blinds

Logic with the fleetnumbers went out the window when they started with 61xx MMCs.... You'd have thought with it only being a seed vehicle they'd have gone for 499x as per 4697/4698. But never mind.

Yeah I agree with many it seems, the livery on that body looks ace
