(09 Nov 2013, 5:09 pm)busman101 Don't get too excited, especially if you're off to Lumiere and if you are, park at either Sniperley, Belmont, Merryoaks or Howlands ! Plus, there's the extra 21's & X21's as well !!!

They aren't seriously putting DAFs on the short Durham - Birtley runs are they? I was planning to catch one AngryAngry

(09 Nov 2013, 2:28 pm)aureolin I actually think GNE are starting to crack it with their branding. Easy on the eye and effective. Rather than painful and tatty.

Go North East are definatly starting to up their game regarding route branding. Not long ago they started applying tatty and horrible brandings to buses, for example ''The Centurion'' and ''The Pronto''. However, more recently they have started having fantastic brandings like the ''Citylink'' branding on the Versas and ''Drifter'' branding on the Streetlites.

However, old route branding was considerably better. The old Route19 branding on the Solars was fantastic. Along with the ''Angel'' and the old X10 brandings.

For whoever asked, the 689 is part of the ''Venture'' network.

Branding seems to be getting better, looking forward seen how the cobolt clipper and fab 56 brands turns out on the deckers.

I hope they drop the flowers... lol

(09 Nov 2013, 5:03 pm)busman101 Somebody's got to do the ironing !

There won't be much ironing for him to do if it is just a couple of Wonderwoman outfits.

Just hope the VentureMan outfits aren't too tight of a fit :s

As far as ive been told by GNE that all brands will be getting refreshed and revamped.

Hope GNE get some more of those solos for Peterlee, and get rid of the east durham brand and have the solos branded as OK Way.

Now howay, imagine GNE investing in that route.
Hell will freeze over before a range of attractive ticketing options and vehicles from this century are used on a daily basis on the 71 :p

You've all obviously seen what the green looks like in daylight, and it contrasts with the black from the Versa quite well. Although it's pretty much the same as the current livery, it looks much more modern and slick on the Versa.
Top marks from me, GNE!

Wonder if the 39 will be uploaded to the simplicity tab, it seems pointless to cause its gonna be a mixed bus route along side the versa's...
Seems pointless using them on the 39, they could be used on the 38 so that can join the Simplicity brand.

On a different note just noticed the Doxford bramd has being removed from the simplygo site but is still in the Doxford Clipper timetable.
