Well this is a follow up to the one from Scotland, but I want to open up a topic about one in London. Well I seen that the London orders have no window panels on the staircase but the one from Scotland obviously do. But it's actually based from the New Routemaster but I believe it would spread onto other bus types in many years time. But do you agree or disagree that the bus body should have glass panel on staircase for London fleet?

I think other bus types will look worser: I have two attachments that may be an answer but are nets though :

The TFL spec might change during the lifetime of the Gemini 3 so that later ones will have windows on the stairs, remember dual doors weren't a requirement until the late '80s/early '90s.
