The Evoseti is the EYMS one which Volvo has loaned from EYMS to demo to other operators, it isn't the first time they've done this. EYMS 733 was on loan to Go North East a few years ago.

(30 Jul 2016, 7:05 pm)Adrian It's taking far too long, but it's not just the 39. The Red Arrows refresh started in November 2015, and the first vehicle was branded in March of this year. There are still 5 running round in the old livery.

Noticed GNE were pinning some reliability issues today on match day traffic in Newcastle. There were about 20,000 there.
God help them when the actual season kicks off.
(30 Jul 2016, 7:30 pm)Michael Well those silver citaros were painted ages ago in to silver, that was a waste of paint.
I bet the 39 doesn't even end up branded....
Well if GNE didn't change routes every 6 months then they might keep up....

The reason it's taking ages is because there trying to make the branding look cheap and cheerful at the same time ; wouldn't be surprised if it takes them 2 month to get the scanias branded. Also doesn't help when other buses need patching up and are vor which also delays the whole process
