Yes, here you go https://www.flickr.com/photos/paul_17com/54602558659

Go Ahead would be almost certain to bid for franchises in the LCR, as would likely Metroline, plus incumbents Stagecoach & Arriva....although there is a limit on how much any one company can win.

RE: Go North West
Going back 25 or 26 years ago Go Ahead along with Stagecoach were the preferred bidders for MTL before Arriva gazumped them.

It conjures the thoughts of What if???

Do like the attention of detail with that livery especially the MTL style fleetname's including there own version of the Trust holdings logo over the door

Wonder if this is things to come with logos etc if they get a Merseyside depot a return of MTL style logos and depot codes

Everything will be METRO, although could have heritage liveries for trainers etc....as in Manchester
