Also, note the upside down road-strips on the livery. #CreatingRepetition

Best Impressions are probably more common than Stagecoach with their identikit branding attempts.
Surely there's some creative originality out there or is it just the old boys network sharing out the work again....
The rise in identikit branding is probably something to do with him having to let go of his decent graphic designers, he's not capable of anything beyond basic shapes, simplistic wordmarks and naff colour schemes.
I've spoken to commercial and marketing teams from other bus companies who wouldn't go back to him.

(04 Feb 2022, 3:02 pm)Ambassador Of course not, but they are proposing the exact same design to pretty much every Customer. In most industries that would be not expected!But at least these liveries are a lot better than the boring T&W PTE Yellow and White and the NBC Poppy Red that we had to put up with before deregulation in 1986, which lots of people seem to go want to go back to

One way around this, put a load of Solar Panels about 16ft to 18ft high off the surface off the depot yard, therefore they can double up as a source of electricity and undercover storage for the buses.

(24 Feb 2022, 4:48 pm)streetdeckfan As much as I'd love for them to go for the Electroliner for the Angel, I feel like they would discount it purely because it looks the same as the StreetDecks they already have on the Angel, so it doesn't stand out as being differentThey could get Stenning to work his magic and make it look different.
