It doesn't need to be branded anything other than 'Transport North East' or whatever the trading name is.

As for colour scheme, then yes, I'd say it makes sense to paint them similar to the Metro, but it's really the least of our worries with the current network.

Yeah totally agreed, personally mind I'd rather see them do it a different colour and create a brand between them like London pretty much; ie Orange Overground, Turquoise DLR, Red Bus, Blue/Red Tube, Light Green Tram and so on.

They, kind of, already have it anyway with the colours used on the Nexus site. Why reinvent everything for the sake of it.
