I’ve never heard of a Solo SR that’s sounds like a E200MMC

Apparently due to issues with the OM934, Optare recently had a Solo SR testbed with a cummins 4.5isbe engine, subsequently this is the result

@@AzzY300689 True, although they have got a number of OM934 examples within some of their fleets.. As far as I know these are the first EU6 Solo SR’s with a Cummins 4.5 from new as opposed to the OM934 5.1

That sounds really nice, despite the rattles

Thats actually amazing

Sounds Brand New😊

Nice solo sr

Theses Solo SRs were apart of a wider stagecoach order stagecoach had placed, however about 4 or 5 of these ended up going to Stagecoach Manchester under the Bee Network, I do believe they do a lot of work on the free bus around the city centre as well as smaller circular services, however I stand corrected if wrong

Good see Yorkshire made is back

Is that a ZF gearbox? Also in my opinion it doesn't sound the best for a brand new bus.

Wait, so when did Switch revert back to the Optare name?

I still refer to them as Optare Solos as its the more common understanding of them
