CLondoner92 (New Account)<a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/Mellor" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Mellor</a> has launched its next-generation Strata, a UK-built small bus that redefines <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/accessibility" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#accessibility</a>, comfort, and sustainability in passenger <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/transport" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#transport</a>. Building on the success of the 2016 model, the new Strata features a redesigned rear saloon with fewer steps, increased headroom, an extended low-floor area for up to 12 seats and space for two wheelchairs, plus optimised seating layouts for greater capacity. Built on the <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/Mercedes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Mercedes</a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/Sprinter" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Sprinter</a> platform, it includes advanced GSR2 driver assistance systems and is fully PSVAR-compliant with modern passenger information and accessibility features. Certified as a Low-Emission Bus, it delivers up to 22mpg, qualifies for BSOG support, and offers a low cost of ownership. Available in three configurations—Strata, Plus, and Ultra—accommodating 22 to 30 passengers, it has a 2.3m width and 17m turning circle, ideal for rural and suburban routes. The Strata Ultra will be showcased at the ALBUM Conference from 12–14 May 2025. <a href="https://mellorbus.com/latest-news/mellor-launches-next-generation-strata-revolutionising-small-bus-design/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://mellorbus.com/latest-news/mellor-launches-next-generation-strata-revolutionising-small-bus-design/</a>

14missionOn vacation in Escondido, CA. Rode the Sprinter train down to <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/Oceanside" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#Oceanside</a>. The conductor commented that earlier trains were full of people going to protests. If people are protesting in deep suburban northern San Diego County, hardly a liberal bastion, that's really saying something. Throwing in a picture from the train because it's Mastodon and we love trains. <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/Sprinter" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#Sprinter</a>

cohanOur wet weather has continued, rain turning to <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/snow" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#snow</a> yesterday morning. Luckily we didn't get anything close to the forecast possible totals (15-20cm by today)- we had a few inches handful of cm, we did a preliminary -slushy!- shovelling yesterday, but only another cm or less by this afternoon. Still more chances today/tomorrow. <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/weather" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#weather</a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/Alberta" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Alberta</a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/Canada" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Canada</a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/spring" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#spring</a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/winter" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#winter</a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/sprinter" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#sprinter</a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/CountryLiving" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CountryLiving</a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/garden" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#garden</a>

cohanSpecial Weather Statement for Alberta (none of this specifically mentions my area, but no doubt we'll get some part of it! I cut extra firewood today in anticipation of mucky weather. This mostly talks about stuff starting tomorrow night, but we currently have light rain which will probably turn to snow soon as it's barely above freezing.
