(11 Oct 2016, 4:32 pm)Dan wrote 5323 is the first Mercedes Citaro in the fleet to be repainted into the new corporate livery - so no is the answer to your question!

The reason why it hasn't been repainted for the Durham Diamond is not out of a lack of respect at all... There are reasons why it hasn't been done, but one of the main reasons is that 5323 is a spare Euro 5 vehicle for Riverside. Until 5292 returns to service, Riverside would gain float 4896 (Euro 2). This would not be practical, when Riverside has a large number of contracts stipulating the use of a Euro 5 vehicle on evenings/Sundays.

I meant no offence by the comment. Im just aware that on occasions that this has been done in the past. I just thought it might of been an opportunity to get rid of the B10 sooner than later.
Are there any plans to replace 4896 before 5292 returns?
