Good point, but you do see a few around that do work both in the UK and over on the continent. I went on a few coach trips in left hand drive coaches when over there as the coach is put on the ferry to cross the Channel.The Inspector wrote:Since when do the UK have left hand drive busesLTB_Enterprises wrote:What are the pods on top, air con?

There are now a large number of Omnicity rigids in the UK with First, Nottingham City Transport and a few other operators, they are even at Heathrow Airport. However there are no Omnicity bendi's.cal_t wrote:I think First has some of these omnicities...seen some pics floating around the net somewhere.

Er, there are quite a few RHD OmniCity artics (CN94UAs) running in the UK: First (Manchester), Travel West Midlands and Bws Caerdydd (Cardiff Bus) run them on regular services, while a number have also been used for the Heathrow T4 tube replacement service (while the line to Heathrow T5 is built).The Inspector wrote:There are now a large number of Omnicity rigids in the UK with First, Nottingham City Transport and a few other operators, they are even at Heathrow Airport.

Heathrow Airport has a batch of Omnicity artics. Omnidekkas are becoming more popular over there as well, I think because they have the largest motor in the market. The engines are in a horizontally opposed orientation, but without as much insulation as the N113 series buses. The chassis itself is the CN94UB/CN94UA/CN94UD (depending on the chassis use).The Inspector wrote:There are now a large number of Omnicity rigids in the UK with First, Nottingham City Transport and a few other operators, they are even at Heathrow Airport.

Looks to me like it might be a test for a certain other germany city with an o bahn perhaps? If it were aimed at Adelaide, wouldn't Scania of got their hands on a right hand drive unit?Desto wrote:Hope this bus passes and the government looks at getting this type of scania artic for the o-bahn. It looks great from the fron and I bet it looks good from the side but I don't particulary like the back design of the bus though. I wonder what the inside and dash look like etc.
