Nice sounding bus that - hopefully someone finds a use for it! Especially when she had that clown-like whistling turbo back in the Connex days. She was one of the last of the batch I travelled on when still a regular on the 152. Would be interesting to know the average cost on re-converting it back from open top. |

I am amazed how easily the roof popped off .... thought the downward pressure might just crush it a little ... but then an ALX400 looks to have the flimsiest of roofs. |

Maybe the manufacturers have an idea it might be de-roofed given time, they build it that way.  Now when Park Royal put a body on a RT chassis..................(Not my photo) Attachment Deleted |

Unfortunately not yet as it’s only just been purchased, but I’m sure one will be along soon, only realised when I saw it with ex Metrobus 253 |
