Hi,
I saw this bus in Sutton yesterday and it had advertising on it saying something like "the new shorter ciatro". Looks like a shorter version of the X26 vehicles.
Does anybody know anything about this?
Could be the new bus for the 404?
Had no operator logos on it.
Regards,

Plenty of chat there about this trial Citaro K.

I was going to lock it but....
This is the vehicle board so whilst discussion has been going on in the Quality Line thread this board is the correct home for specific discussion about this bus (although I suspect it will continue in the QL operator thread....).
I shall leave unlocked and see if it develops.

It hasn't been out in London service for a few days now, I think it may be trialling on the 408 for a bit as well, that would make sense

It could possibly go to TB as well or Tower Transit at LI

It could possibly go to TB as well or Tower Transit at LI TBH, it could go anywhere - Go-Ahead have Citaros on the 507 & 521 already & Arriva have a sizeable number in just the Southern Counties group alone

It could possibly go to TB as well or Tower Transit at LI AV - for the 203/H37 likely, but I'd really like it on the 111 (because it is my favourite route, and it's short enough to go round the route!) TB - 227. MW/RA - 507/521 (anyone for a BYD/Citaro K side by side photo!?)

I can only assume Epsom Buses haven't got on with it if it's gone back early. Let's hope it does come back to a London operator as I want to see it and ride on it. Getting across to the X26 route is a real drag for me hence why I missed it. Perhaps Tower Transit can get hold of it and send it out to play on the W15 or 339? (joke suggestions folks - not insider knowledge)

TB - 227. MW/RA - 507/521 (anyone for a BYD/Citaro K side by side photo!?) It's even less liklely to happen than an ADH on the 111! Only a small handful of DP/DPSs and one DLE have been on the 111 since the new contract.

I prefer almost ANYTHING other than an SP on the 111
