Old number 2 reborn
I just know the purest will hate it but I think it look great specially where they ported the exhaust to stop it being squashed and the new LED lights and wavey radiator grill

WOW!! Don't know about the back Loving how the exhaust has been done As mentioned on FB Malcolm, only the (1) are ALL the remaining Oranas going to have this treatment. What about #20 (well ex #20) That wouldn't need much considering it's already been refurbished.

Re: Old number 2 reborn
did the inside get modernized? or just a facelift for the outside? metro should take heed of how bus is to be presented makes it look brand spankers
Re: Old number 2 reborn
Grant loves the Scanias and is going to take one off at a time and depending on how bad they need it think old number 7 is next I think 20 would be last on the list
The inside has only been cleaned just the outside make over

Re: Old number 2 reborn
Looks good Malcom, only comments are not sure about the exhaust port and the rear window area, has that been filled permanently or is it removable panel that can be pushed out as a emergency exit? I like the LED tail lights All in all a good job.

It's a gutter guard the first one they did didn't have one now when it's raining the driver opens the door and kneels it it poors a couple of gallons of water over everyone waiting at the bus stop funny asTas Bus Nut wrote:What's with that strip above the roofline

Oh well Wilbur at least with the gutters dropping a couple gallons of water on the passengers at least they won`t need a shower when they get home.
