No Citaros don't come in double deck flavour. *The only German double decks come from Neoman - either in coach form or as the Lion City double deck for Berlin. Ironically the Lion City can have 3 doors - including one at the back - and double staircases but Neoman have not prequalified for "the New Bus for London". Interestingly the Berlin double deck is "iconic" even in its most modern form but perhaps we wouldn't want a German bus as a replacement for a German bus (at least on one or two routes)! http://inovacaomarketing.com/2006/11/15/man-lion-city/ I'd wondered why something along the lines of the Berlin double- deckers hadn't been considered - they've got quite a few smart features: the rear staircase takes you straight to the back doors, and the floor-to-ceiling front window on the top deck is a nice touch. (Though the headroom on the upper deck seems like it's made for smaller people - I bashed my head on the ceiling when reaching the top of the stairs, and then again on the high-level handrail when heading for a seat) |
