Here is two images of the new Tottington Line livery

What an extremely smart looking bus!

The former CityZap vehicles are now back in action on the re-branded Red 4 service (formerly 484) between Bury and Ramsbottom. Rosso are offering £1 fares until 16 September for anyone wearing red.

I had wondered what had happened to the ZAP buses this side of the Pennines. Still ZAPPING though with its plates.
Is this covered by all former ZAP buses?

3 of the brand new versas were on display yesterday. 1 on a mobile journey along the route and 2 in Rochdale. Staff said, the versas are due to start the 464 from the 28th October

Here's a photo of one. The 6 in the branding and route number 464 looks distinctive https://www.flickr.com/photos/145244805@...pA-2amSouC

Distinctive it may be, but is it compliant with disability regs ?

It wouldn't be on the road otherwise.

RE: Rossendalebus
I wouldn't put it in the same category as running a bus with no MOT but wouldn't put it past somebody taking a design consultants idea and not bothering to check it. I would imagine it could easily be read as a 6 with some fancy squiggles, or even just seen as a solid block by someone with poor eyesight.
