It doesn't look like it's been out since Saturday


Yep.

6303 is back in service with the Contactless accepted advertising removed from the front of the vehicle.

Does anybody know why 704 and 705 have yet to be repainted and instead they've moved onto 631 and 627??

It looks rather smart in person, it doesn't look 'too red' when you actually see it.
I wonder why they removed the contactless vinyl, unless they're adding a full vinyl around the screen

That contactless vinyl was pretty ugo to be fair so glad it's gone - it's not part of the corporate brand application. I notice it's got the older Go North East logo on the side though, hopefully that detail is changed at some point.

You know what, I never even noticed that, but now you've mentioned it, it sticks right out! They must have had some of the old logos laying around and just wanted to use them up

Admittedly, it was pointed out on a Facebook group - just need a Stanley knife and a ruler!

And a protractor to make sure it's exactly 55°

New timetable for 6/6A and X30/X31 online. Both timetables show corporate omnicity. Seems like Toonlink will be dropped completely?

I've never been a fan of Toonlink, it's always sounded cringy to me

I've just noticed it still says Toonlink on the second page of the X30 timetable... Maybe it's staying, or they forgot to remove it

Would imagine it’ll go Xlines when the DD arrive, however the X30 will be green back, X31 will be black back.

The deckers should be arriving shortly, I would have thought they might have held out on the fancy timetable until they arrived

It was supposed to be corrected..... The rear logo was changed.

Wey, I suppose it means it has the three most recent GNE logos on it now!
Must be so we can get used to having 3 different batches on the route


RE: Go North East: Latest News & Discussion - September 2019 - streetdeckfan - 18 Sep 2019

So why have they covered the Wright logo on the back glass with a matte black vinyl sticker? It looks awful and sticks right out

It used to have the full vinyl on the back, now it's just got a square of vinyl over the Wright Logo. The pictures of it in getting painted have the Wright logo visible so it's only just been put on
