I think someone said the order was 5210, South Tyne Versa and then all the latest red spares and in between all that the repaints.

6099/6100 and 6116/17 should be going in a special livery soon too.

Also forgot to mention 8306-8309 and 8319 being branded.

These should have been done first after all they've been purple ages now. 8306 still has faulty blind lol

and the omnis on the 50, think it will April/May before we the New Corporate Livery rolled out, As think GNE will do branding for individual brands week by week.

E.g. 2 Weeks ago 5204-09 got branded Fast Cats, This week it was the Citaros going into WTX, This upcoming week could be one of the above for all we know.

Forgot about the Omni's for the 50/50A.

Hope the ''Whey-aye-Five-0'' won't be ''Coaster'' style, liked the livery on the Scanias.

I have a feeling it will be, =(

Me too...

It will be too confusing but 'Whey Aye Five 0' in that text in between 2 wheels? I think it might be a little bit squashed.

Not really, as the Whey aye five-0 should go no where near the the Drifter and Coaster.

They may do the writing smaller so they can have it the style as the Drifter and Coaster

Well technically, both services use Omnicities with a similar base and although quite rarely, I suppose they will make it onto some Newcastle routes and all Chester-based routes that go to Newcastle go through Gateshead the same route as the 1. I just don't think they would want to do something like that. My opinion though.

I think rather than the brand solely being based on South Shields and the Beach, GNE should include the Durham end of the Route, i.e. usage of the Cathedral or Railway Bridge would be great, whilst maintaining the "Sunny" Theme, so it's 50/50 when it comes to the Brand, which would tie into the Route Number #CleverMarketingTipsOnNEB

Seen the X3 thew times hardly anyone use it

I'm not sure why you've used Middlesbrough when they were the last North East major club to win a domestic trophy

I'm glad someone's picked up on this.

well they have only won 1 trophy we have won 2

Newcastle won the championship in 2010.

well they have only won 1 trophy we have won 2

And Newcastle have won 10 major domestic honours.

However, the last major win came in 1955 (and Sunderland in 1973) so I wouldn't really be extolling the virtues of that success over more recent achievements.

Newcastle won the championship in 2010.

And the Intertoto Cup in 2006.

'Boro the last Norh East club to win a domestic trophy...WRONG

Spenymoor Town won the FA Vase last year ;-)

But they haven't done that with the Drifter or the Coaster. The seaside theme is kept and the only thing that is different about the livery is the fact that the Drifter lighthouse is red and white (presumably something to do with Sunderland) and the Coaster lighthouse is white. Therefore, I cant see them doing it now either.

Souter lighthouse I presume.

i have the feeling 5210 will be getting branded next week as 8228 is on its last legs and thus will be the end of SPDs then the following week my beloved route 88/88A should be straight after that got my location ready for them in my own back yard plus i may see the lass i have a crush on like that Jennifer Paige song which is titled Crush https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YWLUE68upzA

Is it me or is the omni being transferred to Stanley a darker red than the standard northern red?.........just saying

Saw one of the X36 Solars at about half 12ish in Boldon - the front looked like the bus was kneeling down, and the back of the bus was standing up off the axle about a foot or two foot higher than usual - think there might be something wrong with the bus?
