Go North East: Latest News & Discussion - May 2017
(08 May 2017, 6:37 pm)S813 FVK I'd have a guess at it being 8324. I believe Dan has said in the past (I think it was when 5249 missed its repaint slot but the news had been updated to show that it had been repainted) that he notes repaints on the fleet news as happening on the first day that the bus is off the road for that purpose, rather than on the actual day it is repainted.

Wasn't expecting a venture on the 39 this morning
(09 May 2017, 10:00 am)Acky81 Is simplicity being axed? What's the pvr for 2/2a? Does anyone know the plans for deptford? Will the 36 have a nice brand at Chester le st?
Is it just 33 38 and 39 getting branded for black cats or will the 2 2a join the brand

(09 May 2017, 4:33 pm)S813 FVK And 645's rear tagline refers to the old Venture service V8 (now 16), are the Ventures planned to gain replacement taglines soon?

(09 May 2017, 4:35 pm)Dan Go North East tends to repaint buses/refresh its brands every four years - I would expect all vehicles ordered as part of the centenary year in 2013 would be up for repaint soon.

(10 May 2017, 12:59 pm)Venturego Timetable also includes service no. M6 along with M7 & M8 under this brand.
I think it looks amateurish (as do many GNE brands) IMO should have extended Venture, with maybe a sub/tag line for these services: "Venture into the Metro Centre" and include "intu Metro Centre" brand within this cant strip if intu are paying advertising monies/promotional spend.
