Think it's a bit silly leaving them in the old livery though? Especially when some of the buses on the routes are in the new livery with the new logo. Looks messy to me.

(22 Nov 2018, 7:38 pm)S813 FVK I agree. It really makes me think about just how much Arriva actually value their route branding strategy if they don't repaint the current vehicles on the route to match the refurbished vehicles joining them.
Same story at Ashington with the X21/X22 - roughly a year and a half in with the E400MMCs and still no sign of the 14-reg E400s being repainted to match.

They've been quite happy to treat Blyth's recently repainted Solos to another lick of paint though...
Arriva MAN Ecocity 4802 has now arrived back at Darlington depot, don’t think it’s been back in service yet though
Does anyone know what else has left Ashington when the 4 Yorkshire E400s transferred there apart from 7414/5?
Is the official allocation of the 306 now a mixture of B7s and Pulsars?
7412 has left too, the 57 reg E400s transferred to the X20, when they're not knackered.

Last ditch attempt to prevent it in a meeting between Senior Managers and Trade Union representatives tomorrow, but failing that, likely before Christmas.

(29 Nov 2018, 7:28 pm)RobinHood Long running pay negotiations I think.
