(08 Apr 2014, 7:05 pm)JoshP All vehicles, Solos and Enviros, should have a plain white base paint with a simple scarlet coloured band and scarlet band lettering placed somewhere.
The corporate cream livery isn't too nice either, in my opinion.

(08 Apr 2014, 7:23 pm)Jimmi I like the corporate cream livery.
I just wish there whole fleet was the same colour, I saw the ex Nottingham Solo the other day and it is still all green.
I also wish they would update the roller destination blinds as they haven't been updated since January 2012, which means on most of the time the destination is set as "SERVICE" or left blank, sometimes "DARLINGTON" is displayed on Service 16.

(08 Apr 2014, 7:46 pm)JoshP With all their routes in Durham and their funding, I'm sure they have some spare cash to purchase Hannover displays for their vehicles without them and afford a system to update them regularly.

(01 May 2014, 8:13 pm)busman101 Have they not put one in to change the 701 in Chester-le-Street as the last one usually runs early - due to leave at 17.09 and seen it early 3 times so far this week, but it was only a minute today. It had 2 drivers on it on Tuesday and it was at the top stop in Chester before it should have left the bottom !!!

(02 May 2014, 5:00 pm)JoshP Is there any news regarding repainting of the Nottingham Solo? It just doesn't fit in, just as the Pink bus doesn't either.
