Apart from the squeaky doors and the odd rattle, it was a million and one times better than my previous experiences on a Cadet. Ride quality was nice and smooth and none of those horrible idle vibrations. I hope more of these end up at Runcorn so I don't have to skip buses anymore!

I understand that both 2509 and 2512 are both Speke bound. I had 2509 on the 79C on Saturday. As you say much better than a Cadet. I note that this batch retain their luggage racks presumably from their days on the X32 and X94.
