Hopefully it looks as good as 91114's Durham Cathedral livery. I've noticed that few have been disappointed with the recent liveries. 91101's seemed to receive a lot of praise.

I have to say, I like the new VTEC designs keeping them in line with the livery; however, I always think this will be my favourite livery to run up and down the ECML. Seeing it in person was quite a sight.

I really liked the 007 livery on 91107 as well, only saw it a few times in person. Definitely one of the more impressive liveries that the trains have worn, I also liked the Sky HD one when the set was complete and not a mix and match combination.

The Christmas livery on 91128 has been revealed.
RE: East Coast / Virgin Trains East Coast - KFB - 01 Dec 2015
Are all East Coast locos and coaches now in VTEC livery?
Thank you.

Have to say that looks absolutely fantastic. Interesting to see that they have gone for a blue base colour, given that red is the base colour for Virgin Trains. Red is also considered a ''Christmas'' colour, and associated with Santa Claus. Will hopefully be able to catch it up for a photo soon.

Great liveries!
