Well, Ive seen a photo of MX10 DAA painted gold in Bus and Coach World suggesting thats its going to do the same here.
I have seen no pics or heard this yet but be intresting if true
Just seen a pic of it on facebook it looks superb.
Yeah its for arriva's investors in people gold award.

Will it be doing what the Gemini did and go around all the depots in the North West?
Unsure but will try find out as it would makes sense if it did but would leave st helems a bus down as we have been struggling for buses recently.

As far as I know it won't be aloud to Winsford as they're too long, The reason Winsford is the only depot in NW (Not Including Speke) who don't have them!
Are the deckers at Winsford not 12m (the same length as a Pulsar)? If they are, which I did think they were but anyone please feel free to correct me, surely there's no problem? In fact, didn't someone report a Commander as being in use there?
The VDL deckers will be shorter than 12m, not exactly sure on the length but around 10.6m mark seems right, their capacity being similar to Spekes B7TLs which are around that length.
The DLA's are quite long though aren't they, not entirely sure exactly how long though.

The DLAs are definitely 10.6 metres, would assume the same for the Gemini 2s.
