(30 Jan 2020, 4:01 pm)streetdeckfan I have to agree there!
It's far too bland, far too much white, just looks like a demo vehicle!
I do like the coach though!

You don't like much do you streetdeckfan? Mostly complaining, I think. Get a better hobby!

To me it just look like half job, at least there is "something" to current livery. However this is bland, horrible mixture of colours and cannot consistently be rolled out across different vehicle types and look uniform. Yes looks very much like a demo, however demos tend to have better liveries too!

I said I liked the livery on the coach! At least it has some colour to it!

I think the main thing that makes it look like a half job is the lack of colour along the bottom.
Imagine how dirty they'll look once they've been through one puddle!

Naturally, I did a quick and dirty Photoshop and whilst it's not perfect, I do think it looks better

(25 Jan 2020, 5:17 pm)OrangeArrow49 I would love to see the stripes livery make a comeback on the new Stagecoach buses.

(30 Jan 2020, 11:30 am)N1cholas Must say i like the new Stagecoach livery, it is clean, fresh but simple, much improved on the current livery

It looks terrible. Apart from the coach.

Definitely an improvement, but as they say you can't polish a turd.

Apart from having no bottom skirt, is it practically not the near the same amount of white that we seen on the previous MMC liveries...? The MMC swoop livery has a lot of white, and like the new design, the bulk the white is on the advert boards, so will be covered.

R.E. the interiors, it has been noted that Stagecoach are still developing interiors in line with the new corporate image.

Flipping the wheel around on the sides and you get an area of colour practically the same as previous rear swoops. Plus, of the bulk the white is on the advert boards, so will be covered also.

R.E. the interiors, it has been noted that Stagecoach are still developing interiors in line with the new corporate image.

You're almost certainly right. But not having the bottom skirt makes a heck of a difference.

I'm still in two minds about the designs, but until seen in the flesh it's difficult to gauge it's effectiveness.

Moving back onto local fleet matters

19383 is now at Stockton, having transferred down sometime on Wednesday - being used on the afternoon Prior run virtually straight away
While mentions of 19207 moving to East Midlands, Bus Times currently has its base plate tracking as working out of Walkergate - it's reportedly due to be the 1100 22 from Throckley

The Tees Flex information page has been removed from the website - one of the 4 older Sprinters was out on what looked like a training run yesterday morning
