Doubt this is true as it would of been on the Chronicle Website on Traffic Disruption section, plus the bloke who has been on Tyne Bridge since Sunday is still up there, surely he would of been forced into coming down for his own safety, and I am 100% certain he wouldnt of liked the idea of flames licking his arse, unless he was wanting a permanent tattoo of the Japanese Flag on his backside.

Still waiting for the re-painted mercs on the 27 to be re-branded. Assuming that they are not going to be the new purple versas and remain unbranded until  they decide what to do with them a year later Tongue

Probably end up being like the Solars, get repainted then plans change and are repainted again, no doubt 5310-5319 will also be repainted in the coming weeks/months.
