Yeah, that's true... The only problem with Voith is that when the bus breaks, the bus tends to have difficulty breaking fast. It tends to be more jerky than ZF (which is actually quite jerky too due to the new brakes on the bus) when breaking, especially when the bus is travelling at high speed...
I dont know if you all have notice but there seems to be a change of the left wing mirror from 3850 onwards, is no longer the squarish one but rather the one that is similar to 7777Y cos that mirror is bigger. I had one of my bc fren who actually said that the square one that is using 24V power, for the left mirror as the arm is longer than the manual one, the mirror seems more small, thus visibility is further and smaller. So i guess thats why they change it.

Do you mean that the Voith gearbox had been modified?

The KUBs on 27 had been transferred to 170. However, as the replacement buses were Citaros, and the 27 BCs often drive very fast, there was a big problem with jerky buses. (Sorry if this has nothing to do with Wrights)

HGDEP has not gotten any new Wrights, none of the 39 new Wrights after SBS3825T are under HGDEP.
