I still think if you're going through the hassle of repainting all of them, you might as well just replace the lot instead of having three different specs on one service
Just palm the 16 plates off on the X45/46/47 where they'll be wrecked anyway
Aren't the Red kite services the main bread winner at Hownsgill, surely having brand new buses is more of a priority given how long the Castles Express buses have been in service?
As for 3 different interiors, despite the age gap, aren't they all pretty high standard and very much the same, apart from colours etc
Dare I get into a discussion of where a bus is more likely to be 'wrecked'. Are we on about the road surface conditions & damaged that way or the population of the area? I would argue if its population that a bus has more of a chance getting damaged in Durham City or Bishop than Consett or Newcastle (as someone in works in all 4 locations)
