This means that these OmniCities will follow in the footsteps of Olympuses with Arriva in Yorkshire that had its leather seats replaced with standard moquette. Admittedly, early days of leather seating were in a sense experimental.

As an aside, with route 4 and X4 going Sapphire, I wonder whether the Temsa Avenues face early withdrawal? My rides on these buses last May were these routes (or maybe similar 4a and X3).
