I'm not keen on the red and black Enviro 400 MMC but its miles better than the purple one. Stagecoach's are ok with the 34/X34 branding.

Its the patchwork appearance at the front that gets me, bit more red paint where could be applied would be an improvement. Noticed today a number of new bus stop signs outside of WYMetroland, black with a diagonal red stripe and the sign cut diagonally at the bottom outer corner to follow the edge of the stripe.

That's a great addition,can see it benefitting people who use the hospitals. Wonder if Transdev will offer anything in return?

Seemingly not:- Andrew Keeble @keeble_andy · Jan 12 alextransdev @firstwestyorks Hi Alex, does it work with First tickets to Harrogate? Alex Hornby alextransdev · Jan 12 @keeble_andy @firstwestyorks not yet but you never know in the future... but this was also tweeted without any response from Alex (might have been a 2+2=5 tweet) philip smith @psmith201202 · Jan 12 @scottpoole11 alextransdev @firstwestyorks and for a quid each way to get to harrogate on a first week or day is excellent value for money

Wonder if the desti is linked into the next stop display as photos taken so far have "HARROGATE then Ripon", Ripley then RIPON" and RIPON (the capitals are my emphasis of the larger text rather than it actually being capitals).

Are they Steetdecks or Gemini 3's? I was told that they were streetdecks by numerous sources but others have told me they're Gemini 3's. That certainly have a Streetdeck body!

Ok, So Gemini 3 with a Streetdeck front? Just to clarify, the name Streetdeck only applies to the version which has a Wright built chassis as well as the body. When this body is built on the Volvo B5TL then its just a Volvo with Gemini 3 body. The actual bodies of course are similar.
