Funny to see that 3037 has an advert for USB Charging on the rear - is this just human error or a hint to future?

It's not getting a repaint into the corporate livery is it? Unless it will retain the CrossRiver colours, just getting a touch-up instead.

I'm also intrigued to see 4105 as a training bus, depending on the depot's allocation in the future. The only time I can think specifically of a ALX400 training bus was from a TV series that I watched a few years ago.
Thanks for the update MM

It'll be based at Speke like all the other training buses...

The crossriver is in the new all over blue corporate livery but it's still not complete , so not sure if it will get crossriver branding or not reapplied.
4105 will be based in speke to allow new drivers to get a feeling of driving a double decker and get use to the dimensions etc which I think is a good thing , instead of just giving a quick veichle familiarising when they arrive at there operating depot.

Now that's surprising one of the 110 Sapphire Enviro400s from Wakefield are having a makeover there. Wonder what livery they will turn up as though?
