Info (EN): The buses belonging to this batch were the first articulated vehicles to arrive combining a MAN chassis with a Castrosua framework. Previous batches of Castrosua bodies had only been mounted on Scania, and previos MAN chassis had been seen only with Van Hool Bodies. Only three buses from this batch remain in service.
This bus was new to Lothian Buses as 607 in 2001.
Seen here at Crewe Toll
607 is a short wheel base Trident and is seen framed by bushes and trees.
These buses were originally bought new with middel exit doors in the days when this had been in favour with the company for most of it's operating days. When the company became Lothian Buses, middel exit doors fell out of favour posibly safety issues?
These buses are also short wheel base and with long wheel base buses giving more capacity, these buses were converted to single door and used on peak rush buses.
