(11 Aug 2015, 5:14 pm)S813 FVK You did but yesterday you said something completely different which was that you think that they will go onto the Highwayman:

Using that post alone, it is quite clear that you are hinting that again by referencing the colour green.

Pure coincidence Tongue

Not until Sunday, when we'll miss our two hourly wake up by something sounding like a knackered tractor thundering over the speed bumps outside

Gosh, we're going back a bit here.

I don't as I think I only did two SPD journeys that I remember with one of them being a short Fram - Durham hop on the 50 and the other being Durham - Sunderland on the 20A. From what I remember they were pretty bad.

Must say though I do sort of miss Arriva's Plaxton Pointer Darts (excluding the X reg examples - sheds!).

(11 Aug 2015, 4:45 pm)JP6004 I like the highwayman but deffo think the brand needs to be pumped up a bit

The service changes at the end of October would be a good time to refresh the Highwayman brand.

I haven't done the maths, but are there enough Mercs to operate a Highwayman and Highwayman type Express - in line with the revised services?

Dennis MPD 619 has transferred to, and has entered service at, Hexham Depot. Transbus MPD 560 still currently resides at Riverside Depot, ahead of transfer to Hexham.

This has released DAF SB120 8273 from Hexham. This vehicle is currently at Riverside, ahead of its return to Deptford.

Hopefully means a full cadet allocation on the 33/33A/39...and they can start branding a couple in to "Black Cats".

Thought 8273 was replacing 8293 at Hexham thus why it transferred there in the first place

Not sure how the Diamond brand would work on a base other than orange. Especially as that has been the base colour for the Diamond since the brand was introduced.
