SG Double Deckers Fan Club

• 23ispolo

  29 Jun 14, 20:43

  Trying out having a new fan club, after the Volvo Single Deckers Fan Club thread expired... Anyway, some info on (Volvo) DDs below:

  My favourite models:

  1. Volvo B9TL (Wright, ZF gearbox)

  2. Volvo Olympian (Batch 2)

  3. Volvo B9TL (CDGE)

  Reasons for my favourites:

  1. I like the engine sounds of the Wright B9TLs with ZF gearbox, as it is very musical.

  2. I like the pink and purple colour scheme for the interior and prefer it's appearance without EDS.

  3. I like the engine sounds of the CDGE B9TLs too, but prefer the ZF Wrights...

  Anyway, my favourite buses for the bus models above (except Volvo B10TLs):

  1. Volvo B9TL (ZF Wrights): SBS7528A, SBS7537Z, SBS7592M, SBS7671T

  2. Volvo Olympian (Batch 2): SBS9408A, SBS9512G

  3. Volvo B9TL (CDGE): SBS7395R, SBS7477M

  Note: You can also include Scania K310UD and Dennis Tridents into this thread!

  Im hoping that Mercedes Benz will produce a Citaro 3 axles DDs with 7.7litre/10.5litre engines..MAN with 12m 3 axles DDs with either 320 of 360hp output to break the domination of 3 axles Volvo and A Dennis DDs..Scania should also built a Omnidekka 3 axles with 320/340 or 360hp version..lm pretty sure theres market especially in the Asian market

  I guess fewer of the Volvo Olympians will have their lifespan extended due to the wheelchair-accessibility programme.

  Did SBST purchase the Volvo B7TL? If yes, what is it known as?

  Probably Wrights offer discount rate for SBST who knows.. By the none of the modern DDs impress me cause of their stupid limiter and robustness. My all time fav will be O305 yes this DD can smoke any current DDs from low,mid to top end.Second will be the Leyland Atlantean AN68.Too bad theres no Single decker National MK 1 here..
