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.
It would, but like you brought up earlier, what about the Red Arrows when it becomes Xlines?
Also, the fact that red kites aren't actually red does bother me somewhat

(18 Sep 2019, 7:35 am)streetdeckfan Is 6305 away getting repainted?
It doesn't look like it's been out since Saturday
6305 was collected from repaint at 13:00 this afternoon.

Will 6304 getting it's internal vinyls done any time soon or are they waiting for the rest to be done before it goes back for them?
(20 Sep 2019, 12:55 pm)JP6004Worth mentioning at this point that the new interworking cycle is X31/45/46 and X47/70/71?

I mean, that small, inconsequential fact could make a slight difference to our speculation...
In other news, apparently 6303 had issues starting at Eldon Square, causing it to run late and get swapped for 3941 at Chester Le Street

So X47/70/71 black with X31/45/46 green?
That would make sense, but then the numbering wouldn't be consistent with the branding

Add in the 3 for the X5/X15.
On a separate note, if by the current workings the 826 am and 823 pm will work on to and off the X30. Upgrade on the current East Yorkshire DD that’s on those at the moment
I've just noticed that the white stripe on the X30 is cut off by the wheel arch, is that the final design because now that I've noticed it, it looks awful

Doesn't look that bad. On another note 6115 has returned, presumably with 6100 going other way

It looks like they've just copied and pasted the design from another bus, without taking into account the different height so the white line gets pushed down, it also makes the length of the green at the top disproportionately long IMO, so what I would have done is push the lines further back which I think balances it out a bit more
Another thing, can we please have some clarification on the official branding for X-lines
Is it 'X-lines' or 'X lines' because the website has it hyphenated, but all the timetables have it without the hyphen, plus the logo makes it look like it's all one word!

How many of those who will be travelling on the X30/X31 will really be worried about the white stripe running into the wheel arch, or the fact it’s X-lines or X lines?

Apologies for going off topic here but 4947 has now been withdrawn, if not reported already.
