What route was the Derwent Ranger?
Doxford Clipper is gone I'm afraid. 39 will soon be SimpliCity.
Black Cats, should of been Black i feel, as then it would have subtle reminders of SAFC, while remaining a good brand. Unfortunately at present doesn't think this brand should be brought back- too similar to Fast Cats. The 29 would of otherwise fitted the brand,
Magic Roundabout I assumed was maybe a placement deal with the company? But that's complete guess work.
I'd give the 29 a brand too, CrossCity? Think it could work well and that would be mean the majority of service branded from Deptford.
I feel like I've given my opinion on branding and personally I feel unless services have very low PVR, brand them all I mean the new X3, 99, 71, X22, 27X. Other than that I'd brand the rest, bring back Washington Street Shuttle (maybe something new for M2/M3), West Durham Swift. I'd start a new Gateshead local brand for 64/95/96. New Brands for the X25/13/14/15/15A maybe one brand for Langley Park?
With the 9 having such a big PVR - wonder if it will ever be branded.
The 47 was the Derwent Ranger brand
The 39 will be simplicity, although, the new timetable says other wise..(which is wrong).
CrossCity sounds like a good brand name, although, maybe the 56 could of used that one, instead of the FAB 56.
However their is some pointless brands:
Laser
South Tyne
Pronto (should change the name)
Diamond
The Orbit
Pulse
Lime
Highwayman
East Durham
