Route H28 New Buses 26/02/13

H28 recently recieved new 10.2m buses. These buses were also a chance to show off Abellio's new interior design and moquette, which before, were inherited from Travel London with red handles and grey and blue coloured seats and walls. Now, yellow handles dominate and a new red moquette balances it out.

Despite passing through residential streets and experiencing a tight left/right turn somewhere along the route, these 10.2m buses workwell, if the driver is careful.

Here are some pictures of the new buses on the H28:

Front entrance area of 8585

Stop buttons are yellow with red buttons for DDA compliancy. It, in my opinion, should be grey, with red buttons.

Some older buses, including the old darts, are still in service when I covered this route:
