Aieee!! My eyes!!! IT BURNS!!!!!

I caught one of the mega-bright, technicolor trams home from work today. Someone at Stagecoach seems to have hired the Balamory gang to come up with the new colour scheme.

More worryingly, the Metro racks have been removed. I hope they're planning to put them back up again. Otherwise, where am I going to get my daily Count Dooku SuDoku fix from if they go?

I have to say, I'm less than convinced by the revamp. What do other people think?

It's awful! [livejournal.com profile] caerban and I got one yesterday and we both hated it! They've made the wheelchair bit smaller by putting in a big cushion like on the buses, but that just seems to mean people are even less likely to move out if they're standing there so you can put a buggy in as they now have a nice comfy cushion to lean on! They've also changed the button system so you now have a "stop" button and another button to press to open the doors - what is the point in that exactly? The most annoying change, however is the new warning tone before the door opens, pitched just perfectly to hurt :-(

Hmmm...sorry, got a bit carried away there!
