Is this one blue to or a different colour?

5219/5220  Loop Branded Blue
5222  Loop Branded Orange.


New timetable for 93/94 shows a green variation.
I reckon that 4954 should be painted Lilac for South Tyne 88/88A, so all 9 buses are branded, especially as one run will still be scania operated due to scholars service 856 on the board (and 92 at 0720), before starting 88A at 0920 Lukes Lane.
Do the 38 & 238 interwork?

UPDATE: These works are expected to be complete by late afternoon on Friday 15 April, with services returning to normal routes and the shuttle bus withdrawn.

Actually that was the commencement day of the original roadworks. It's just GNE updating the original news item.

Have all Citaros had the labels (next stop, caution, ramp etc) placed on the dashboard lights?

5337 has too.

They will be used to replace flipdots in other buses.

Look so strange without them but lets face it, they weren't exactly worth having. I saw 5337 earlier too, quite annoyed that I didn't check but, at the time, I didn't know that they had been removed.

Tut tut...

They've been removed for a few days now - lack of attention to detail! ;-)

I knew there was something not right about that photo but there we go, I know now.

However, if I do need a proper excuse, I never saw 5337/8 yesterday (miracle!) Tongue
Will 4978/79/80/81/82 be branded for the 19?
