RE: Go North East: Latest News & Discussion - July 2015 - Venturego - 21 Jul 2015 Coloured Blind or What! This is Pink!! (like the first Angels) This is Mauve!! ![]() The Bus is definitely more Mauve! RE: Go North East: Latest News & Discussion - July 2015 - S813 FVK - 21 Jul 2015 I'm sorry but that is clearly pink. I don't see how it isn't unless you're colour blind of course...

I don't see how it isn't unless you're colour blind of course...Yeah I'd it's pink too, judging by the photograph displayed. It can vary dependant on light conditions I imagine especially with photos.

It can vary dependant on light conditions I imagine especially with photos. Yes; it's very difficult to judge the colour by photographs, as it can vary depending on the make/type of camera. As we've gotten ever so technical with shades of pink - I think the pink on the Solos is a mix of RAL4006 and RAL4010 (I believe the latter of which was used on Angel/Pink Panther). RE: Go North East: Latest News & Discussion - July 2015 - Adrian - 21 Jul 2015 It's clearly yellow.

I would agree with Dan re.RAL4006 & RAL4010 codings. These refer to RAL4006 as Purple & RAL4010 as (Tele) Magenta. on the website: http://www.e-paint.co.uk/Lab_values.asp Search under "RAL CLASSIC" Range RE: Go North East: Latest News & Discussion - July 2015 - GuyParkRoyal - 21 Jul 2015 NK15GDF is also on site at Saltmeadows Road. RE: Go North East: Latest News & Discussion - July 2015 - South Tyne Lad - 21 Jul 2015 It looks to me that these Solos are fitted with the Euro 6 6 cylinder Cummins ISB Engine , not the typical Mercedes found in other Solos in GNE. These will for definite be fitted with Allison gearboxes like the other Solos or have GNE moved to Voith transmissions altogether?

Let's hope the branding tones it down RE: Go North East: Latest News & Discussion - July 2015 - Adrian - 21 Jul 2015 (21 Jul 2015, 8:22 pm)Swiny1 wrote Normally really like the colours GNE use. Afraid this one is awful. Let's hope the branding tones it down See what it's like branded? The Saltwell Park Streetlites looked dog awful in that mint colour when they first arrived, yet I'd say it's one of the best examples of branding they have.

Can't argue with that they look great RE: Go North East: Latest News & Discussion - July 2015 - R852 PRG - 21 Jul 2015 (21 Jul 2015, 8:33 pm)aureolin wrote See what it's like branded? I agree; when I first glimpsed a ''Coast & Country'' Streetlite on delivery to Saltmeadows Road, in the plain lime green base colour, I thought it didn't look particularly nice. Now that all of them have been in service for nearly 3 months, and are all branded up; I still think it's one of Go North East's smartest brands. They've really upped their game with the new branding recently, considering at one point most of the now corporate-liveried services were just thrown a useless brand. I expect the ''East Durham'' branding to be hopefully improved, and I have faith that it will look fantastic.

I didn't like that style. Looked as if it was done for the sake of it and cheaply at that.
