Go North East: 6319 / NK67GMX
Go North East's unallocated "The Angel" branded Wright StreetDeck Micro-Hybrid 3 6319 (NK67 GMX) is pictured here in the yard at Saltmeadows Road Depot, Gateshead, following the application of branding prior to entering service, whilst undergoing final preparation for service ahead of its allocation to Chester-le-Street Depot. 30/09/17
Representing an investment of approximately £4.3 million, this batch of vehicles have been ordered to upgrade "Angel" service 21, which is currently allocated Wright Eclipse Gemini 2 bodied Volvo B5LHs, partially funded by a grant of £1,119,235 in Round 3 of the Green Bus Fund in 2012.
These vehicles feature the latest technology, and are fitted with the third generation of Wrightbus' Micro-Hybrid system. This system allows a 21% fuel and CO2 saving; and is achieved by carrying through the technologies from the previous two generations of the Micro-Hybrid systems, as well as additional features being added, such as a third smart alternator to power new electric features such as an electric air compressor, which reduces engine load and fuel consumption. As well as this, the vehicles feature Euro 6 stop/start engines.
Internally; they feature Esteban Civic V3 seating complete with leather and soft topper foam for added comfort; four tables on the upper saloon; two-colour Tarabus 'Wood Effect' flooring; and blue accent lighting, which is fitted underneath seats and on the stairwell, to provide extra light on the gangway.
A first for Go North East; this batch of vehicles also includes a glass staircase, for added style and again providing further light on the stairwell.
Like all new vehicles; they feature Wi-Fi, 'Next Stop' audio-visual announcements and USB connections as standard, though these vehicles also feature three-pin power sockets on the upper saloon tables.
