(12 Oct 2021, 7:02 am)KingSlayerRBLX Whey Aye Five O was my favourite brand by far. Sad it got eliminated.

Just seen a branded 47 for the first time in person. The cream rear is awful IMO (and it was pretty clean. It’s going to look horrendous during the winter when the roads are dirty).
Where did the cream rear come from anyway? What does the cream tie in to, or what does it “represent”?
Along with the dark maroon it looks rather EYMSy, pre-rebrand.

(12 Oct 2021, 1:48 pm)streetdeckfan Realistically, they've probably just ran out of colour options. When your whole model of branding is based around a colour with barely anything else to it, they don't really have many options without having services looking the same.

Would any of these brands and colours work.
Example A: "This is the West Gateshead Heeders 49 Service to Winlaton" (Would be Painted Orange & Dark Blue)
Example B: "This is the East Durham Swift X6 Service to Sunderland" (Would be Painted Lilac & Beige)
Example C: "This is the Waldridge Wanderer 34 Service to Ouston" (Would be Painted Lime Green & Red)

(12 Oct 2021, 2:47 pm)streetdeckfan I would have personally gone for a green rear to link it with the other Consett services. While usually reds and greens don't really go together, I think the maroon and a paler green do work quite well.

Could be worse in the case of Streetdeck fan, they could have returned to the eyes.

(29 Oct 2021, 10:29 am)Train8261 Tbh I think gne are handling a lot more than repaint after an article the other day threatening strike action (one reason being repaint)But to be fair, a lot of it does relate to introduction of CAZ, I doubt there would be as much if vehicle reallocations werent going ahead in preparation for this. I agree it is bit excessive in regards to doing the 10s/Prnce Bishops and C&C, but then again cant imagine the latter 2 being done until new financial year
