RE: Refubs/Repaints - XQ Zero - 20 Apr 2023
(27 Mar 2023, 10:09 pm)Jimmi wrote The very green, 4803 is now in service: https://flic.kr/p/2opyyn94803 has now been painted into "Eco green" livery. It was on Darlington's service 2 today, 20 April 2023. It did not appear to be in service from 2nd April for a few days so presumably was repainted then. It has been back out since 11 April. This lends credence to the suggestion that it should not have been painted green.
There's much confusion as to why it's been painted green, heard a suggestion that it's not meant to be green!

RE: Refubs/Repaints - Unber43 - 07 Jul 2023
I don't know where to put this seemed most approriate. I saw an Arriva Wrightbus Pulsar I think, and the windows had the black outline and it made it look like it was only a few years old, wish more buses had that

1531 doesn't - it was given a second repaint last autumn when it went for internal refurbishment, so matches the rest of the refurbished examples at Durham.
And the reason 1513-23 do is down to them having Bonded Glazing rather than Gasket as per the rest of the Pulsars - hence retaining the black.

Wasn't aware 1531 had been repainted twice. I have it with the black surrounds. Which IMO look considerably better than the others

In terms of Branding wise. I know Arriva are cutting down on branding up buses. Is that due to finances or is that due to any new bus that they will get will be leather seated, USB charging and the all the rest of it? I know a lot of buses are loosing their Sapphire and Max Status for the new Journey Mark Livery. Especially when the X3/X4 and 5/5A streetlites and they got debranded a long while back. Will it be the ending of Route Branded buses at Arriva?

It's been scrapped about a year after the new livery came out, pretty much. Arriva are just so slow at repainting everything that it's sticking around, mind not that's a bad thing in a way as it's a waste of money painting buses that don't need painting.

Though they are cutting down in general, as Storx has pointed out above, there are some specific cases such as with the 434 where branding is happening (2601/3 are in base livery, you'd imagine once 2602 goes then they'll receive vinyls).

It will be definitely interesting to see what Arriva do from this point forward when they get new buses in the future.

Aye agreed, be interesting to see if the Blyth ones get the eco livery, or the eco livery that one at Leicester got instead.
I don't even have a clue what the interior design is, every batch being ordered is coming out different. Some with blue panels, some with green panels. Some with ivory poles, some yellow. Some with the 2009 floor design, others with wood effect. Seems like it's just whatever.

1559 now got a new livery to represent the new 16 Service.
https://www.facebook.com/share/FRr48FmZjv1781g5/?mibextid=WC7FNe
Quite an interesting one but actually decent I must say. Problem is Arriva in Stockton always swap buses on different routes so I wonder if this one will always stay on the 16.

The 15 and 16 interwork, so it will likely end up running around on both services at some point.

True. I wonder also how many more will get painted in this scheme or do ya reckon it's just the one?
Also Arrivas new purple / pink scheme. I wonder what they will plan in the future with that when they order new buses in the coming years.
