It was nice to give these a go but it's safe to say the passengers won't miss them. London's streets have been a cruel mistress as their ride quality is shambolic, particularly 2160 and 2163 which were boneshakers. 2165 was a little better but still night and day compared with the longer Enviro200s Southport have had from new, which ride decently. Their seating is uncomfortable and the legroom really poor apart from the seat alongside the emergency exit which has bags of room. They're also too small for Southport's locals, especially the 49 which seems to be busier than the 44 and 46, at least on Saturdays.

Now let's hope Southport use their extra Enviro400s where they are really needed, on the 47.
