Perhaps, for all we know, this surprise repaint could just be a brand refresh? Although the ''Toon Link'' received newer vehicles with the recent brand revamp, that livery was massively upgraded with the change. Every now and then, something needs to be refreshed and I imagine that 5284 is the first of the batch to sport this new base livery. That said, it could be transferred to Washington for use on the ''Connections4'' service. Guess we'll just have to wait and see.
