Seems the geminis are struggling again. The sapphire interiors look very scruffy now, plus they don't seem to have been washed for weeks so on the outside are practically black with mud & dirt. Not a good way to attract passengers into using public transport.

4163 on the other hand however was spotless, clean body & the interior is still a pleasant fresh place to be. The standard interior with the blue checked moquette is so much nicer than the sapphire spec.

Why are there always problems with Winsford Geminis? Buses from the same batch were delivered to Speke and Rhyl but you never hear of similar problems.
