Large coaches are quite an upgrade over regular buses and feature:
- 58 reclining, generously padded seats with armrests,

- Overhead storage,
- Undercarriage storage for larger items (checked luggage!),
- TV overhead monitors on some vehicles (I have never seen them used),
- A button at each seat to request stop.
Why are these coaches on local service? I don't know. Maybe it is to address overcrowding. Maybe the coach was a standby bus, and CCT could make use of the available capacity. I will monitor if the situation happens regularly or not.
