Go North East: Latest News & Discussion - April 2019

(23 Apr 2019, 10:19 pm)Malarkey wrote I have always found the RYB variations of the old corporate liveries of the past to be very vibrant and eye catching however the inclusion of white looks out of place in the new revised corporate livery compared to the original livery which was introduced in 2016 in my opinion.


I actually think it would be quite a good idea for Go North East to come up with three different designs of the corporate livery and allow the passengers who use their services on a daily basis vote on what they think looks best rather than making a change to the livery thinking "that looks good" then once a vehicle is painted into the updated livery which has been agreed upon to then look back it and say "actually it doesn't look that great, lets tweak it a bit" until they eventually find something they actually all think looks fantastic.

It's not just the design of the corporate livery Go North East seem unsure on at the moment, you have the design on the Cobalt Clippers where they've changed the tone of blue on one of the stripes so at the moment you have 6101-03 carrying a darker stripe then you 6104 on wards coming back with a lighter coloured blue stripe on them, for me it looks pretty poor on the operators part as lets be honest there was nothing wrong with the corporate livery introduced in 2016.

I personally think the mock up you did looks way better than what their current new livery is (although it seems to be changing every 10 minutes!)
I just personally think that Yellow just doesn't go with the shades of blue and red that they've chosen. Maybe if they used more pastel colours then it would work, but it just clashes far too much[Image: a264ac52e23258c17140465550b68c9e.jpg]
