The dark blue livery has been good though for Diamond, except for the fact that with ageing it could become dull looking, I certainly preferred it to the Preston livery which just doesn't do anything for me in its current layout, maybe because Green and Blue tend to clash badly, having said that though those are Preston's own colours so not easily able to change away from it, although the Diamond based Blue would be an acceptable new livery for Preston Bus also and would cut down on repaint cost when vehicles are transferred to and from there to/from other centres like Atherton and Tividale.

Red London buses are regarded as a worldwide institution and a tourist attraction. As someone on this forum signs themselves of: If it's not in London, they don't want to know. I'm now convinced Bus Reform/Franchising is not going to happen. Congratulations, Grayling, you win! However, if it were a and if it included a county wide livery, I would go for a practical and efficient combination of orange and green.
