Fair enough in relation to the vehicles but if you are referring to my username that is because it was the suggestion that came up for a username as the registration process would not allow the correct use of the name.

There's a streetlite out on the 492 today

Being brave with the new vehicles now I guess. Lets see how long it takes before a window gets put out.

Probably more chance of the window falling out on its own accord with the roads through Beechwood & Noctorum.

The new vehicles definitely need extra windows that can open though. I have been on 2 of them since they were delivered and the ventilation is diabolical.

Cant agree more, I got one on its first day in service and had to get of as the Heat was making me feel sick

I commented on this issue even before the SreetLites entered service. This was an obvious design flaw no doubt made by somebody who would never actually ride on one of these vehicles. It's interesting that Wrights also build London's New Routemaster and, after three years of constant complaints from the travelling public, it has only now agreed to retrofit the whole fleet with opening windows. Apparently, there is a maximum temperature for the transportation of livestock but not for people in the UK. Go figure.
