I presume these will be the new VDL / Wright 2 Integrals which should bring more variety to the area.

The wright gemini 2 DL will have a Cummins engine fitted on the VDL chassis, similar to cummins engine the enviro 400 chassis. An example of one operating for First London on route 23. www.youtube.com/watch?v=xEByH51CeiY

Sounds a bit like an SB200, looking forward to trying one of these out.

Does 512 still have none matching rear lights. They were matching last week but not the same style as those fitted to 511

Much better than our of "old" B9TL Geminis, this is the Gemini 2 body, very similar to the FTR fronts

Does anyone know if these are going to be named?
If so any suggestions?
