JS Mowbray who shared the route had i rememberLight Green & White livery with Diamond brand http://www.flickr.com/photos/johnmightyc...370990820/ and http://www.flickr.com/photos/johnmightyc...370990820/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/johnmightyc...370990820/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/johnmightyc...370990820/

I'm not sure about the background of the plate, but 4840 has always had that plate, long before the "revived" Diamond brand: http://www.simplybusphotos.com/images/48...%20188.jpg

So I doubt the plate will be going anywhere soon. Here it is in a former life: http://www.simplybusphotos.com/images/70...eworth.jpg
