Good selection Joshua_boyd. Get them while you can, considering they'll start replacing them from early next year

Over the next 3yrs ALL N113s will be replaced, making Metro a 100% low-floor fleet, however, the new ones won't be heading north for a while, because the refueling facilities don't accommodate Euro 6 buses.Joshua_boyd wrote:Thanks mate will they keep some in service?

Would Metro be likely to cascade older low floors, keeping the brand new ones in Hobart and thus avoiding the problem of Euro 6 refuelling facilities for some time yet.

Quite likely John. There's been no mention of changing refuelling facilities up north. When they start arriving though, things may change.The Phonj wrote:Would Metro be likely to cascade older low floors, keeping the brand new ones in Hobart and thus avoiding the problem of Euro 6 refuelling facilities for some time yet.
