Peter Hogg of Jedburgh in the Scottish Borders has added two more Enviro200 buses to its fleet, built and supplied by Alexander Dennis.
One is a 9.7m 34-seat example and the other is a 10.8m variant with 40 seats. They have been manufactured at Alexander Dennis’s Scarborough factory to what is describes as a bespoke specification that includes printed tartan moquette, colour matched to hand poles as well as to exterior vinyls in a similar style.
Other custom elements in the Peter Hogg buses include seatbelts, USB charging points at every position, and a digital tachograph. In line with the operator’s tradition of naming its vehicles after Disney characters, the pair have been christened King Fergus and Queen Elinor.
Director Annie Hogg collected the newcomers from Scarborough. She says: “We have been extremely happy with our existing Enviro200 buses and the attention and care provided by the Alexander Dennis team, which made it an easy choice to return for our fourth and fifth examples of the type. These are our best buses yet with their fantastic interior fit and finish.”
Adds Alexander Dennis Retail Sales Director Charlie Miller: “It has been a huge pleasure to bring Annie’s vision for these latest Enviro200 low-emission buses to life in collaboration with our partners.
“Camira used its revolutionary digital print capabilities for the moquette, and KDT Graphics provided the exterior vinyls, working closely together to make it all match perfectly.”
