To be fair several GNE buses only have a subtle company name hidden amongst the branding, so if a different branded bus turned up to cover another route your worry could apply there too. Or when Voyager are covering for GNE…

I have been on buses where people didn't look at a display and just got on it. I have a friend who thought the X45 was the X31 and ended up in Stanley. Or my other friend who got the 35 to Bolden when they were meant to be going to East Herrington.
