Rode 4505 (MX13 AEG) Volvo B5LH/Wright Gemini decker on 433-NEW BRIGHTON recently.
I actually thought the thing broke down when it appeared to stall in the City Centre (but then I forgot about the leccy motor!)
Beautiful-looking E-Leather clad Esteban Civic V3 seats with 'CROSS RIVER' logos embossed in the headrests. Unusual take-off 'whine' when the electric motor operates (it reminds me of a milk float).
Some numbers;
14' 10" height, 11521kg unladen weight.
Either 66 seated, 25 standees (max cap of 91) or 66 seated, 22 standees one Wheelchair User Passenger. 43 upper deck seats (and yes, I have counted them!) 23 seats on lower deck. Interestingly, no tip-up seats are fitted.
Nice buses

It has been a Sunday service today, however, which I think is what Arriva3137 means. Pulsars do seem to be quite common on those routes of a Sunday, especially recently.

Pulsars seem to be a regular most days recently, a few hybrids have slipped onto them though. The boss called a hybrid in yesterday because it was on a 407 and he doesnt want them on any other routes except 432/3/7 until the rest enter service!
