BEESTONS DEMO AND NEW ARRIVAL

 Many thanks to Jason Player for allowing me to feature the latest demonstrator that Optare have provided for Beestons for 2 weeks this has already been in Suffolk with Borderbus who incidentally have a Wright Streetdeck on loan SL15 ZGP, The Metrodecker from Optare is the first Doubledecker that they have produced since the Spectra which finished production about 10 years ago, First have already trialled one early this year for tests, and this bus certainly catches the imagination and to me is more like a bus than the Wright Streetdeck! What you won't find is any rattles or poles coming lose us all poles and fixtures are moulded directly to the ceiling as the photo below shows, with well spaced seats made from e leather is this a serious contender to take on ADL's E400 MMC?
