I think they look great and echo they look better than the Enviro400 in this livery
Looks good apart from the white Led's not a fan of white led's on buses.. except maybe this one off White LED Volgren Optimus at Brisbane https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pK3pRKcqmWw
Yh the geminis look really smart now, particularly the white led displays on the front & the full width on the rear.

Also winsford have acquired more Wythenshawe cast offs in the form of optare solo 664, looks smart for its age but sounds rather loud though! 2500 however sounds worse, its whining rather noisily now so guessing its either the gearbox/axle probs???

664 is from Bolton.
Ahh right ta for that!

What do folks think of the new uniforms too? I think they look quite smart, however I was more a fan of the blue shirt meself.

The white shirt uniforms are for Sapphire services. Normal services should retain drivers in the blue shirts/polos unless they interwork with a Sapphire service, in which case it's obviously unreasonable to expect a driver to change mid-duty.
Have Spekes Geminis returned home now?
A driver friend mentioned all Macclesfield drivers have been given the Sapphire uniform as to my eyes theirs not enough staff to dedicate a Sapphire only crew rota
2615 is presently at Macclesfield & working on 38's
Is the Pulsar still on loan here?
