I've just noticed it still says Toonlink on the second page of the X30 timetable... Maybe it's staying, or they forgot to remove it

Would imagine it’ll go Xlines when the DD arrive, however the X30 will be green back, X31 will be black back.

The deckers should be arriving shortly, I would have thought they might have held out on the fancy timetable until they arrived

That contactless vinyl was pretty ugo to be fair so glad it's gone - it's not part of the corporate brand application. I notice it's got the older Go North East logo on the side though, hopefully that detail is changed at some point.

It was supposed to be corrected..... The rear logo was changed.

Wey, I suppose it means it has the three most recent GNE logos on it now!
Must be so we can get used to having 3 different batches on the route

So why have they covered the Wright logo on the back glass with a matte black vinyl sticker? It looks awful and sticks right out

It used to have the full vinyl on the back, now it's just got a square of vinyl over the Wright Logo. The pictures of it in getting painted have the Wright logo visible so it's only just been put on

I highly doubt it, it's staff only.

I got a picture of it today, it just looks strange with a seemingly random patch of vinyl in the middle of a glass panel!

4990 has just failed in Silksworth on the 35A. The driver has attempted to restart it, but no luck. Is this likely to get withdrawn now?

Won't be long though.... i had 4949 on the short 8 service (6:12pm) from Hylton retail park to park lane and honestly, it sounded great, although, the blind wasn't working properly.



Any updates on what other buses have gained the Euro 6 upgrade?

New X30/X31 timetable now Xlines

(20 Sep 2019, 12:25 pm)JP6004 wrote New X30/X31 timetable now Xlines

I did think it was a bit strange them adding a new timetable just before the Xlines launch.
Shame they're still not putting vector graphics on the new Xlines timetables though

Wonder if the X31/X70/X71 streetdecks will be green version and black kept for X45/46/47

I would have thought X45/46/47 would get red, since it's apparently keeping the red kites name

This is how they're received from the agency that makes them - in this instance, Best Impressions.

Hardly a massive issue that the images lose quality when you zoom into them. These PDFs are for print purposes more than anything else.

I know, it's probably just that I got my hopes up with the standard timetables having full before graphics

Think the red will be kept for the red arrows next year

I found they were still very clear when zooming in...

I suppose they could go with a darker red for the red kites, with a brighter red for the red arrows

With 2 shades of same colour used, I dont see how it would work. But loving the choo choo on this version. Front page of timetable of higher quality than internal

Well, I would have the Red Kites as dark red, almost brown, and the Red Arrows as the same shade of red that they are now.

That's because the front and back page is fully vector, shame the X21 timetable they put online doesn't even have the front page!

Wouldn't make sense just to have the X30 green then X31/70/71 black then X45/46/47 red. Least this way you'll have a similar corridor with same xlines version complimenting the colours of the new 97.
