RE: Wrightbus
Yes its good news I did see this, but in respect though not the end of the issue as the company will need a complete restructure over the next few years and the product range updating/changing, certainly a new Midibus must be a priority as the current Streetlite has really only sold in small numbers and many buyers are not in love with them.

The fact that Bamford is involved in Hydrogen worries me, in that if that is the way forward, the firm may probably collapse again, as Hydrogen isn't the favoured future way for powering buses, electricity is in most cases, yet Wright's really have nothing to offer in this sector except the the handful of vehicles it sold to Lothian. Really an electric model should also be of urgency and certainly an advance on the ones that were sold to Lothian.

All in all though excellent news, that must be viewed with caution to see what evolves over the next couple of years, in regards to both new products and product quality as well as what future power sources might be.
