Hasn't by the looks of it. Been in work since 8am and haven't seen it pass my shop today so far.

Nothing major here but 3887 appears to have had its bottom half repainted. Looked very shiny with no evidence of the 'Northern' vinyls except from above the doors.

I noticed. It must have been passing my shop when I wasn't looking. Though saying that it doesn't stand out as much as the pink Solos do. Would track it down this evening, but one I cannot be arsed, secondly my car is low on fuel and I have no intention on filling it until Sunday for when I go to Durham.

6027 has been withdrawn from Washington - according to GNE's website.

Always sounded rather different to the other presidents for some reason.

Yes, I agree. Much prefer the blue base to the gold.

There was a pensioner complaining to a driver of 5399 earlier today about the rattling emergency exit door. Driver (who was really friendly I must add!) explained that himself and other drivers have reported it but there is nothing that can be done about it. During my journey on it, the rattle was noticeable but it didn't really bother me. Not sure if the same could be said if I was sat next to the door though!

Hopefully they get refurbished towards end of the year, would be good to see everyone of them refurbished (expect for the Connections 4 Citaro's).
