*Mutters Daveys plan for the Red Arrows"

In all honesty though if it comes out anything other than Red - i think that'll confirm the route will get new buses, but i'll agree with DanPicken with the repaint being a freshen up.... then again it hasn't been 5 years.... unless they're doing the Red Arrows early. 

What i want to know is when will the Silver Citaro's will receive branding......

I know most of us have been in disagreement with him but if his plans do come out to be correct, i would actually laugh.

And a triple post, i know...

If it was just going to be repainted red again, i think he would have said as it really isnt that mich of a big thing. The fact that the colour is unknown suggests to me that it is going to be repainted a colour other than red.

Hahaha me too, in all honestly, i like his idea's, i do hope one day they do come out correct.... although i was one of them who was in disagreement with him because it was only 4/5 years since they got new buses. 

The Red Arrows is on of their main routes now - it should receive buses with plugs - but its only been 4/5 years.. we'll just have to wait and see.

Some of the red on the original batch, is looking very washed out.
Think of the spare seats at the stadium of light and you probably aren't far off the shade.
