UK registered number F605XWY MCW Metrobus is now in service in Sri Lanka. Daily I travel home in the afternoon by this or F604XWY. It is also in service here.
This particular bus is still with us, as (if I remember rightly), it was exported to Sri Lanka in the wake of the tsunami disaster in December 2004, along with it's sister, F604 XWY and several others. The hub bearings do sound rough. Quite sad really, I used to go to school in Leeds on them, and remember it when it was red + white, brand new in 1988 :-(

Red and white? Wasn't this delivered in Yorkshire Rider livery, or did it carry an advert livery?
Very rough indeed!
