(21 Sep 2015, 4:08 pm)Dan It's not a promotional livery for Go North East's Key Card - I'm led to believe that this livery (or similar) will be rolled out fleet-wide on vehicles in red fleet livery to complete the corporate livery.
Not sure what the arrangements are with the branding company, but I'd imagine they'd target each depot one at a time and whiz through as many as possible.

The following vehicles are currently at Saltmeadows for repaint:
- Stanley's Scania CN230UB/Scania Omnicity 5250 (NK56 KHW)
- Crook's Volvo B7TL/Plaxton President 6038 (V338 LGC)
Also noticed that the old East Durham timetables on the site has now being updated to Indigo but all the routes are separate so it doesn't show a picture of the Solo SR. Example: http://www.simplygo.com/download/publication/58992.18

Just reading Marcus's review and he mentioned driver changeovers at North Shields. There is no canteen at North Shields anymore, so the bulk of the crew changeovers will take place in or around Percy Main (like before North Shields opened).
(21 Sep 2015, 4:17 pm)Michael True only the name of the timetable is Indigo - i think its coloured coded as there's loads of services within the brand however the front of the timetable should be Indigoish.

(21 Sep 2015, 4:29 pm)Michael Did GNE run the canteen at North Shields or was it a public one?
(21 Sep 2015, 3:55 pm)Michael Ye it looks like it, i wonder if all 4 will go Black for ToonLink, although i don't think the PVR won't go up by that much with changes (unless they want them to stop interworking?), or they are including a new service in the brand, which as yet to be put on VOSA?
For all we know, the 15/15A might be getting branded, using a black base... with the 4th Omnicity acting as a spare.....
But i'll go for at least 2 going Black for the ToonLink to stop interworking...

(21 Sep 2015, 4:30 pm)Tom Aye, it was a GNE travelshop too.
Was wandering why the 17A drivers changed over at Percy Main Metro yesterday.
11/95 interworking?
PVR works out perfectly too, with one spare.

(21 Sep 2015, 4:39 pm)S813 FVK Do you know that he is 100% correct? What i'd associate the phrase in bold with.
I suppose, in your defense, it was strongly suggested that the 95 will interwork by somebody who seems to know what he was talking about.
