All Beautiful Things Need Careful TLC to Grow

All Beautiful Things Need Careful TLC to Grow

To be fair to Wright Bus, the bus had only been in operation since Monday and there have been no other reports of New Buses for London, breaking down, except for the incident, where it ran out of fuel.

At least if a 38 bus breaks down, there’s always another one a couple of minutes behind. I suspect that this is one of the reasons, the bus is being tried out on this route.  It’s also a pretty typical Central London route and it is served by the garage at Hackney, where the buses turn round at Hackney Central.

This all shows me how professionally, the development phase is being handled, by both the manufacturer and Transport for London.
