Have to say I think that the headlight surrounds would look better in black or silver but I do agree, it looks very smart.

I reckon on waiting until around the middle of next year before trying to ride one, in the hope that many if not all are repainted by then.

I do not understand whats the purpose & benefit in changing there registrations?
RE: Halton Transport - CX06 EBK - 16/11/2014 02:49
It disguises their age so I suppose when they come back from repaint and refurbishment they look like brand new buses. I have to say they look really smart painted up. I can't wait to see them all on the road.
In other news the 249 Huyton Circular which is regularly Solo operated has recently seen the mini Marshall on at least two different occasions. Pretty unusual working.

Surely it would be better to ride at least one in "as acquired" state with the dual door.

93 has had a front only repaint to red/cream looks a bit odd,prehaps they can't afford the paint

Maybe getting an all over advert put on or something.

Possibly they are waiting to paint it fully until the middle door is removed instead of panting the whole thing and then having to patch it up. Just a idea :P

91 has also had its front repainted
