Wright Commuter Conversion

Yet another one that's spent many months awaiting completion! This is another client commission which sees the OOC Wright Eclipse 1 converted into the low entry, high floor version christened the Commuter by Wrights.

 

An interesting concept that never took off with very few hitting the road - one as a demonstrator with Translink, a couple with Stagacoach and other odd examples spotted in Yorkshire and Scotland. According to 'The Wright Way' book, there were only four actually built.

 

I doubt I will exceed that number of conversions!!

 

Thanks are particularly due here to Paul Dudfield and James Dawkins without whose help in providing essential information, the conversion would still be on the outstanding job list. Thanks Guys!!
