Does anyone know what's currently in for repaint?, The GNE fleet update, normally gives us an update but it hasn't been update since end of March.

Ooo Friend, Bus Friend.

Let’s hope these aren’t branded something meaningless for the sake it, like The Little Purples, or The Purple Horns.

Peterlee locals brand doesn’t really do what’s written on the tin , especially when the solos operate in other areas like Seaham/murton and Durham , probably be little purples to compliment the x9/x10 purple branded xlines or service 55 could go the same way as the 4 with branding.

Should of done the solos under the OK Way brand with service 55 under OK Travel brand, as OK had the depot at Peterlee , seems the only brand GNE wants to keep is the old bus company venture brand

We had a similar discussion not too long ago iirc. Is 'Peterlee Locals' not just the holding name for the time being?

I'm sure that was mentioned in the entuistast page a while ago it was just a place holder name. Maybe they have decided to stick with it

Arriva haven't trademarked it, so GNE could use it as they wish.

Just saw what looked like one of GNE's solos fresh from repaint driving up the A1 past the Angel on test, it had a red rear and what looked like either a dark grey or black front.
Initially I thought it was a GCT Nexus branded, but it looked like it was ready for a road stripe?

To be fair, it could have easily been pink and dark purple, it was pissing it down when we went past! Although, if Best Impressions had anything to do with it, they'd have just copied and pasted it Wink

I'm certain it wasn't that, it had the brighter colour on the back half, with the darker colour on the front
