I was on one of the newly Corporate liveried streetdecks the other day on the 10 and noticed it still had the interior roof panel vinyls for X5/X15.
Do they simply unpeal or does adhesive residue need scrubbed off too making it a bigger job?

I imagine the solos from the little coasters will start to be repainted soom

From what I can work out from Youngest's ramblings, 666 was on the 59 last Sunday and was red.

Although I did not see it I spoke to a Peterlee Driver on the 11th March who confirmed 666 had just arrived back at Peterlee fresh from repaint into fleet livery

666 is indeed in corporate livery - https://www.flickr.com/photos/apt358/51940850351/in/dateposted/

Im always pleased when these turn up on the 10 or 47 rather than the garish green tens or dated looking rangers

Go North East: 6336 repaint into corporate livery - Unber43 - 14 Apr 2022

Apparently 6336 is in the Corporate Livery at Saltmeddows.


RE: 6336 - L469 YVK - 14 Apr 2022

So do Riverside (and Hexham TVT operation) now effectively have 6001, 6049, 6050, 6336, 6337 as spare covering the following CAZ (Euro 6) decker PVR?

Total PVR = 37
10/10A/10B: 16x
27: 11x
58: 6x
X10: 4x


RE: 6336 - Rapidsnap - 14 Apr 2022

6336 was driving around Riverside later on around 1900.


RE: 6336 - KingSlayerRBLX - 16 Apr 2022

Bus is now back in service after repaint on the 57

The Go north east above the destination just looks wrong, or is it just me 



RE: 6336 - ne14ne1 - 16 Apr 2022

Agreed. 
Wasn’t it because the Alexander Dennis logo hadn’t been removed by Saltmeadows prior to putting it into Xlines lively, so the GNE logo was put up there.

I thought during this repaint they would’ve removed the AD logo, plus the GNE logo above the destination.

Otherwise looks good.

Wonder why they don’t leave the Wright Gemini2/Streetlite/Streetdeck light surrounds black like they do with the AD MMC 200/400s.


RE: Go North East: 6336 repaint into corporate livery - L469 YVK - 16 Apr 2022

Would they not have been better painting the front panel below the windscreen blue? Would look really good on the E400MMC.

No they trialled that look on a Solo, Omnicity and Omnidecka in 2019 and it cheapened the livery.
It looked like they’d have a panel replaced from a blue vehicle.

How come 6336 got it’s own thread rather than featuring in the 2019 Corporate Repaints thread?

Cos when I saw it I quickly made a thread, and it is the first repaint in 2019 livery from a Xlines Branding.

Is the Charcoal XLines Brandning dead?

Sorted this now.


RE: Repaints into 2019 fleet livery - Jack Gill - 16 Apr 2022

I guess this means that the 3 spare Consett MMCs will be put into Xlines spare, seeing as they're the same spec this time.


RE: Repaints into 2019 fleet livery - Unber43 - 16 Apr 2022

just noticed the interior as had a update.

I was on it on the 78 a while ago and I have never been so cold on a bus. This was mid december I could see my breath for the 1hour 30 mins journey

That's the right number of spares for the X30's/X70's, X45/X46 and 47/47A with a total PVR of 24x. That leaves a spare ratio of 1x Euro 6 vehicle for every 8x (not including 6064 which can be used on the X45/X46 and 47/47A).

Only issue I can foresee longer term is if the PVR of the X30's & X70's eventually need an increase by 1x as it does seem a bit tight at the moment.


RE: Repaints into 2019 fleet livery - Wybus - 17 Apr 2022

If there is a surplus of X Lines vehicles I’m surprised they didn’t leave these and repaint the oddballs like 6334/5 into standard livery instead

6334-5 are dedicated spares for the XLINES X21.

Strictly speaking, 6334/5 now form part of the PVR on the X21 (PVR 9)
