As you may or may not have known, First Bradford are recieving some Brand new double deckers and single deck vehicles due to replace the old Volvo B7TL Geminis and the older than 07 plate Eclipses at Bradford. Apparently according to this video: www.youtube.com/watch?v=qXL5J89o5Io&t=74s that the B9s will be converted to Euro 6 standards, which I hardly see point in, because many companies are withdrawning B7s as young as 2007 and if some places are doing that, the B9s might only have a 2 year lifespan all year.

I'm delighted they are converting the B9s, those new street decks will be the same crap Leeds have got, and after a couple of years will have the same vibrations, same rattles and same crap engine too. Hate the bloody things lol.

They should see 20 years out of those B9TLs so yes it'll be around 2030 by that point
