Alexander Dennis, a subsidiary of NFI Group Inc., one of the world’s leading independent global bus manufacturers, today announced that it has supplied two high-capacity Enviro400 buses to Coach Services Ltd. They are the first new Alexander Dennis double deckers for the independent operator, joining seven Enviro200 single deckers in the fleet.

Coach Services’ new Enviro400 have been branded for routes 84 and 86, which provide a direct link between the company’s Norfolk hometown of Thetford and Bury St Edmunds in neighbouring Suffolk.

With 85 comfortable, belted Alexander Dennis SmartSeats, the new buses provide vital capacity on their busy routes where passengers enjoy a pleasant travelling environment with wood-effect flooring and under-seat mood lighting.

Coach Services Financial Director Robert Crawford says: “We continually invest in our modern fleet as our customers deserve the best travelling experience. Our two new Alexander Dennis Enviro400 double deckers give us a great seating capacity in a straightforward vehicle that is easy to operate and maintain, making it ideal for the sort of rural network we provide.”

Alexander Dennis Regional Sales Manager Martin Dunleavy adds: “Thomas and the team at Coach Services have taken another step up with their first new Alexander Dennis double deckers. Passengers will love their refined on-board ambiance and the 85 ultra-comfortable Alexander Dennis SmartSeats.”
