Was 'Red Kite' the first branded service?
Did it receive the first OmniCities?
In the original press release did it say 'travel in air-conditioned comfort'?
If Q2 is affirmed, would it be reasonable to expect that when the Omni's are cascaded, they will be replaced with new vehicles?
Sorry, that's for questions!
Red Kite wasn't branded till about 2007? I believe the first truly branded service would have been either the old Northern 'Mini LINK' buses, or the original X66 supershuttle branding. Of the modern day branding, I'd perhaps say the Red Arrows coaches? I may be well out with that info though.
The OmniCities arrives in 2007.
Yes - Omnis were advertised as being air conditioned, but apparently it's very poor?
New vehicles? Who knows.
