亞歷山大丹尼士飛鏢E200 Alexander Dennis Enviro200Dart

繼二零一四年先後購入兩架猛獅NL323大型單層巴士,為替換車隊中早年向不同營運商購入的二手客車,以及於中國製造的猛獅客車,珀麗灣客運再於二零一五年增購新車,其中包括一架亞歷山大丹尼士飛鏢E200,成為本港第四間引進同型巴士的營運商。

珀麗灣向亞歷山大丹尼士購入的飛鏢E200,都是長十一點三米版本,屬此車型中最長的版本,亦跟車隊中的主力,Super Pointer Dart一樣長度。外觀上珀麗灣的飛鏢E200與愉景灣交通服務有限公司,於二零一四年購入的一架十一點三米版同型新車(DBAY135)如出一轍,其中中門是位於較前的位置,有別於港鐵早年引進飛鏢E200時,採用中門貼近尾輪設計。這批飛鏢E200車廂內未有設有大型的區域作企位之用,車廂中的的低地台區域,除了中門前的部份用作輪椅停泊區,其餘都安放座椅方便乘客。除此以外,左前輪上方亦闢有行李架以方便乘客擺放行李,而在運載能力方面,珀麗灣飛鏢E200提供了三十五個座位及三十二個企位。機械配搭是飛鏢E200的標準,達到EEV排放標準的康明斯ISBe引擎配福伊特全自動波箱,並足以驅動日本電裝的空調系統,至於由Hanover提供的橙色LED牌箱,能夠為車外乘客提供清晰易讀的路線資訊。

首架珀麗灣飛鏢E200於二零一五年十一月三十日運抵本港,並趕及農曆新年前於二零一六年一月三十日作首次登記,車牌編號為NG4254。這架飛鏢E200配用的車牌源自一架二零零八年投入服務,配M-Trans車身的猛獅客車,而這架猛獅客車最初登記的車牌(LU2001),早年亦被轉到車隊中的一架亞歷山大丹尼士Super Pointer Dart上。經過試車及進一步調校工作,NG4254於二零一六年二月二十四日投入服務,目前主要行走往返青衣鐵路站的NR330。

隨後珀麗灣客運再增購四架飛鏢E200,作為替換隊中四架於二零零四年投入服務的Super Pointer Dart,新車陸續於二零一六年十二月到翌年一月抵港,首批兩架新車(LL5041及LL5808)於二零一七年三月下旬出牌,在新車全數投入服務後,主要活躍於NR330線外,同樣見於往返葵芳的NR332路線。踏入二零一八年,珀麗灣客運再有全新飛鏢E200加入車隊,是批新車分別於三月及七月投入服務,同樣用作取代Super Pointer Dart(LB8858,LB9730,LE5705及LE6074),隨著這四架新車投入服務後,飛鏢E200成為了珀麗灣車隊中最多同款巴士的車型,成為了隊中的主力。除了LK9179車身上張貼了珀麗灣商標外,其餘同款巴士只披上綠色及黃色的珀麗灣標準企業車身色彩。

隨著配歐六引擎的Enviro200MMC推出市場,飛鏢E200亦已經從生產名錄中除名,珀麗灣客運購入的飛鏢E200亦成為了本港最後一批同型巴士。

After the pair of MAN NL323 full-sized single decker with Gemilang bodywork joined the fleet in 2014, renewal of Park Island fleet still carry on in 2015 and an Alexander Dennis Enviro200Dart was included.

Park Island Transport Co. Ltd. was the fourth operator of ADL Enviro200Dart in Hong Kong and the longest version of 11.3m was chosen, same as the Super Pointer Dart in the fleet. The Enviro200Dart for Park Island looks identical to the only 11.3m sample in DBTSL, with the exit much closer to the front axle. Unlike those serving with MTR Bus, there was no large standing bay within the Park Island Enviro200Dart compartment and except for the wheelchair parking bay, seats were fitted at low floor area for convenience of passengers in need. Total 35 seatings with 32 standees were offered within the spacious compartment together with a luggage rack fitted onto the nearside wheel-arch box, a standard for the Park Island fleet at present.

All Enviro200Dart fitted with EEV standards Cummins ISBe series engine with Voith fully automatic transmission and powerful enough to drive the air conditioning unit supplied by Nippon Denso, Hanover orange coloured LED route display was chosen and provided clear route information to passengers. The first of the batch arrived on 30 Nov., 2015 and registered just before the Lunar New Year. The registration number NG4254 was transferred from a M-Trans bodied Lions Bus entered service in 2008, which original registration was LU2001, the current registration of a ADL Super Pointer Dart in Park Island fleet. The maiden trip of NG4254 made on 24 Feb., 2016 and it was now mainly serving route NR330 between Tsing Yi Railway Station and Park Island.

Park Island Transport Co. Ltd. further introduced a batch of 4 Enviro200Dart from ADL as replacement of those Super Pointer Dart commissioned in 2004. This batch of Enviro200Dart delivered between Dec., 2016 and Jan., 2017. The first two of the batch, LL5041 and LL5808, were registered in the end of Mar., 2017 and instead of NR330, they can be also found on route NR332 to and from Kwai Fong. We saw Park Island took delivery of it last batch of Enviro200Dart in 2018 and commissioned in Mar., and Jul., respectively and after their arrival, Enviro200Dart to be the largest family in the fleet. All Enviro200Dart were painted with standard green and yellow livery and LK9179 to be the only member carried the operator name on it bodywork.

As ADL released Enviro200MMC with Euro 6 standards engine, Enviro200Dart was ceased production and those acquired by Park Island was the last batch of the model in Hong Kong.
