Might X21GNE find its way onto a Streetdeck?

The X21GNE plate is now in place on 6333.

The interior blue paint really stands out on the small corner windows upstairs

6333 looks quite smart in the Xlines livery, although I do prefer the look of the CE Streetdecks that don't have the staircase window. It just seems to flow better with the gold all the way along


Still not a fan of the staircase vinyl, but it does look better than the one on the Cobalts

What is the alternative though? A massive empty space that shows every scuff and bit of muck?

Yes, I think it was fine the way it was, I really liked how simple it was inside.

(26 Aug 2019, 9:46 pm)BusLoverMum I love the staircase vinyl. Always liked the vinyls in some of Arriva's vehicles for the 7 and 24. Beautiful Durham scenery - what's not to like?

IIRC, Arriva's are particularly low resolution so look quite blurry. Hopefully GNE's look a lot better when you get close up

(23 Aug 2019, 5:32 pm)streetdeckfan Looks much smarter!

Always wondered what the point of the rear add with standees a was trying to get across.

(25 Aug 2019, 12:15 pm)Michael With the school contracts starting the week commencing the 2nd September, will we see many movements from the school fleet?

6915, 6916, 6917, 6918, 6919 & 6932 are at Consett with 6124, 6125, 6131, 6167, 6168 & 6169 leaving. 6133 & 6143 remain but I do wonder if they’ll go before the scholars go back.

Wasn't it supposed to show that everyone gets the bus, not just the poor people?

Yep, they don't look too bad!

He also confirmed that the Streetdecks are getting half and half V3 seats in the same style

It's just EY with GNE branding. Not a fan of the full red seats and staircase. Still better than what's on current X30 vehicles

It's a shame. I really liked the interior of the Angel Streetdecks. The new interior, as smart as it look, looks like base spec rather than high spec

And as Martijn also confirmed, there will be 3 different seat styles on the X21s, the blue leather, red/blue leather with foam topping, and the red half and half (but on the V3 seats instead.
