From the picture, although its not the best photo, the new "Go North East" livery looks good, much better than the plain boring red one.

Ooo Friend, Bus Friend.

Don't like the new livery looks more like a Sun FM bus than a corporate livery.

I believe that one of the features of the 'fuel-saving' modifications was changing the drive to the engine cooling fan so that the fan didn't draw power constantly, but only when needed.
3941 seems to be constantly driving the fan at high speed (based on the noise) whenever it is above idle revs.
This cannot be fuel-efficient.

It'll look like a corporate livery when all of the vinyls are on as it probably won't feature a Sun FM sticker.

Better than the "Plain Red" livery, which was almost slagged off everyday on here by members of the fourm.

Ye, Dan said these would be applied at a later date, hopefully sooner, rather than later.

Nothing what Go North East does pleases people, they can't win.

Can't see any posts every few days, moaning about Arriva over using the MAX, Sapphire and now the Frequenta brands on their routes....

I think it is hilarious that enthusiasts constantly slag off Go North East regarding route branding and there corporate identity etc, yet these people will stand on cling on corner for example all day waiting to get the first photo, just so they can "knock one out" about it, and if I was a betting man I would put money on them all being in Sunderland tomorrow trying to get a photo of 628, due to amount of times those people have asked about it on here in the past few days, quite sad and pathetic to be honest.

Here we go again, slapping each other down, over what? A livery. A livery on a bus.

As for people going out to Sunderland tomorrow to find 628, let them. They have as much right to do so as you.
