Yesterday I was on 2651 (SXI 2651) on the 163 service into Belfast. 2651 is an ex-Citybus which now spends its time in Carrickfergus. The Citybus Cityliners are alot different from the Ulsterbus examples. The seating inside is only for 51 while Ulsterbus examples have seating for 53 (or 64 on the XXI examples). The seating arangement on 2651 is the same as that on RE's with the second row of seats from the front of the bus facing the third row of seats. I don't know if this is the case with all Citybus Cityliners, but I do not think that 2651 was as comfortable as any Ulsterbus examples that I have ever been on. Saying that it was a nice change to be on 2651 as it is always nice to be on something a little different I think.
