(04 Sep 2015, 3:33 pm)S813 FVK wrote I also saw 5400 today - the streetlite that Dan mentioned about having part of the main branding missing (not route like 5396) - as i was sitting on the other side, i was unable to get a photo of it but i have searched on flickr, grabbed a photo that had a good side angle and placed a yellow box around the panel that is missing.

Seems we're copying off Arriva by running around without legal lettering, given that it was located on that panel which has been replaced/repainted...

(04 Sep 2015, 4:36 pm)S813 FVK wrote Only 5396 and 5400 have missing branding as far as im aware - both of which occurred quite early on (5396 just a week after entering service).

(04 Sep 2015, 4:40 pm)Dan wrote 5405 is also missing branding (nearside front wheel arch).
The Limes were battered too, but obviously it's a lot more noticeable with such an extravagant design.

(04 Sep 2015, 7:33 pm)Dan wrote That might be the one I thought was 8340 given that it appears to be the same as what I've seen recently. 8340 was certainly victim to the same sort of damage though.
