In the corner of Deptford, looks like 2 Streetlites in the "Blue Sunderland Disctrict" base livery.

For me personally the swoops on the X66's are too close the words.

That's not even the worst thing. The person painting the swoops must have been out the night before, they're all over the place!

If we compare that to the swoops on the Quaycity, its a night and day difference.

Yes, they're '17 plate streetlites, so will be Coaster base livery.

Could that be why the road stripes appear to be thicker than usual and both of nearly equal length.

You know what, I never even noticed that!

Does anyone know when the eclipses are due to enter service, doubt they'll need much familiarisation seeing as the cab looks pretty much the same as the cab of a B9

And judging by the quality of the three they've got done, they were probably pushed to get those done in time

Is the Arriva Max one meant to represent the blue mall or the green mall, ….or is there a turquoise mall now? I haven’t been for a while.

RE: Go North East - Recent Repaints - MurdnunoC - 25 Jul 2021
Still Red, Green, Blue and Yellow as I as know. The centre mall was the Platinum Mall though I don't know if that is the case anymore. If so, there should really be a fifth bus - perhaps in Stagecoach Gold livery or something.

I think maybe the silver swoosh is supposed to represent the Platinum mall?

They came down a couple of days ago driven by fitters, they had no vinyls on though, so presume deptford are putting them on, really looked smart, didn,t post as missed fleet numbers

First look at the coaster. This also confirms the 1A/1B will finish at Gateshead
