(20 Jan 2016, 10:02 pm)stueybish YGO carried the heritage livery to celebrate the 90th anniversary of Scarlet Band in 2011. Currently it is sat in a coat of primer ready for repaint, presumably into standard colours!

Oh, that's a shame.

Incidentally, big'un's noticed that many of the solos appear to have working side and rear displays now.

Yes, YGO now carries standard fleet livery!
The side and rear destination displays are progressively being fitted to all buses to comply with PSVAR (DDA) regulations

They are a lot cheaper than rivals. It's about £8.30 for me and big'un to travel to Durham and back on the 58. It's £7, just for me, on Arriva, £10.60 for the pair of us. I only use the Arriva service because it's twice as frequent and takes less than half as long, plus that £7 can get me a day ticket, in case I need to go out again, later.

A change on the Chester le Street Town Service today where KNV appeared rather than the regular KNW. I also noticed that KNV is now also in Scarlet Band livery.

Not liking the red company name under the destination.

An unusual working from Scarlet Band this afternoon was YJ55YGL (The Pink Bus) on the 110/111/112/879 circuit. Saw it on the Newton Aycliffe School service 879.

I agree the red company name looks out of place and could be a distraction to some customers when viewing the destination.

Needed a re-paint. It was a right mess.

KNW was on the 58, the other day. And there were 2 solos on it, yesterday, instead of the usual 1. Now we know why!

YJ06 YRD sounds like a bag of spanners. It's clanking, rattling and squeaking as it goes over all the speed bumps - sounds like both the exhaust and the suspension are kaput.

We appear to have had our first solo free day in a couple of months. I saw nothing but white E200s, today. That'll be KNU, DXL and DXK, then. No actual scarlet bands!
