Go North East: Latest News & Discussion - July 2015
I think the Trent Barton comparisons are quite strange, because although the names are the same, that is really the only comparison. My auntie and uncle live in Tutbury, which is a small village which "The Villager" V1 goes through and that brand is excellent. However, the links to Red Arrows, Black Cats, Pronto are not that strong. As the brands are not that similar.

It could be argued that Go North East have also stolen the 'Pronto' name from Stagecoach too since they also operate the service using 64 reg E300s (used to be 09 reg MANviros) whereas TrentBarton use 03 reg Solars. I wonder which you would choose...I'd go for the Solars myself.

(24 Jul 2015, 10:29 am)pdiddy Is the X21 gonna be rebranded. ....Angel (if rumours are to be believed)
What's it gonna be called then!!!
(24 Jul 2015, 10:38 am)S813 FVK Fat chance of that happening...If it was a different colour and had another word along with Angel to make it something like "Angel Xpress" "Angel Swift" or "Flying Angel" perhaps but just "Angel" I can't see that happening, imagine the number of people flagging down an Angel bus on the X21 complaining that it had driven past them because they think it's the 21.

Branding Future
From April 2017 There will be One brand only in Tyne & Wear and services from County Durham / Northumberland servicing Tyne & Wear from a
suggested Choice of 3 brand liveries:
Which do you prefer?

Option C looks the best of the bunch, but I guess if cost is a factor, the simpler Option A, is more likely.
List of services which will be included: (Note the number of GNE branded routes which will come under the Nexus/(NECA ?) branding)
