Alexander ALX400

Buses and Road Mass Transit Vehicles

The Alexander ALX400, later known as the TransBus ALX400 and the Alexander Dennis ALX400, is a two-axle double-decker bus body built by Walter Alexander Coachbuilders and later by TransBus International and Alexander Dennis. It was first unveiled in 1997 and replaced the step-entrance Alexander R-series. The body was fitted to a range of low-floor chassis including the Dennis and TransBus Trident 2, the DAF and VDL DB250LF and the Volvo B7TL, with typically 45 seats on the upper deck and 17 to 22 below. Arriva London took the first in May 1998, Stagecoach London took 998 between 1998 and 2006, and Dublin Bus ordered 658 between 2000 and 2006. Alexander Dennis launched the Enviro400 in late 2005 as its replacement, and ALX400 production ended after the last 100 Dublin Bus buses were delivered between late 2006 and early 2007.
