Route 160 Observations









This month sees Route 160 convert to a full Enviro 400 operation. These are not only Arriva Kent Thamesides's first Enviro 400's, but also their first new order of double decker buses since 2003 when the Wright Pulsar Gemini's were ordered for Route 492 after the route was won from London Central. The are Arriva's first Enviro400's to be built to the W.T.A (Whole Type Approval) in the UK. They also are Arriva's smartest Enviro400's, and hope more of these are bought! These are also Arriva's first Enviro400's to contain Esteban Civic seats rather than the usaul Esteban Ciclo seats. Hope you enjoy.
