(30 Mar 2014, 4:58 pm)NEBCD Malarkey I'll do it
I don't know where I've seen this but didn't 3801 and 3802 at one point work at Chester and 3803 and 3804 were at Stanley then they swapped. Also 3803 was repainted into M Ticket livery on around April 10 2013 while 3804 and 3872 both got done up in early May.
3964
Bought New to Chester le Street in 2006 - 21 24 Hours a Day
Was Branded Angel in 2006/07
Was Repainted for the TTX in 2009, and Transferred to Sunderland Road
Was Repainted Red Northern in August 2012 - Remained at Sunderland Road
Was Repainted Green for Festival of the North East in April/May 2013
Was Repainted Yellow in July 2013 for Real Radio
Was De-Branded and Remained Yellow for Children in Need in October/November 2013
Was Repainted Red in February 2014 for GNE Corporate Livery
Just what I gathered from a quick Flickr Search, I sure it started out on the 724 rather than the 21 though, but I would double check, also Double Check Dates also as they might not be Accurate.

The Worm Versas (8302/03/04/05) were new for the Drifter in 2011 I think, then were debranded and rebranded for the 34/34A in Early to Mid November. I think the newer vehicles will be easy to do because they haven't been tossed around very much because they all are branded. To be honest, it's the spares that we need to concentrate on.
(30 Mar 2014, 5:07 pm)Marcus Great. I think we need to all kinda space ourselves out a little and everybody who's gonna help could get a vehicle type or specific depot to look into and eliminate confusion and randomness. Anybody got any similar ideas?

(30 Mar 2014, 5:22 pm)Marcus Oh right, I'm sure some Versas were new in 2011 though, was it the Saltwell Park ones?

It was the Orbit/SimpliCity batch that were 2011 (hence the number in the reg
