Has 8266 been off the road for accident damage lately? I saw it yesterday morning and it had a gleaming white panel on the side of it and the rest of it looked in desperate need of a wash.

It's probably had a new panel fitted, there's a few buses going around like that at the minute.

With the Quaylink having newer buses, they may fit 8310/11/12/13/14/15/16/17/18/28/29/30/31/32/33/34/35/36/37/38 with wifi, then in the next 18 months buy new buses for the 27.

Considering that the Citaro's currently used on the 27 have fairly recently been repainted and the branding has been given a refresh, I think they'll be staying on the 27 for a fair few more years yet.

Although I agree Citaros suit the 27 well, I think in the not so distant future, they may get replaced.

Wasn't their only 2 or three which actually got repainted though? iirc, the 08 reg ones, 5310-19, only got rebranded.
