Not long left for the streetdecks now. RE: X-lines X5/X15 | Re-allocation of Volvo B5 Hybrids from Percy Main - KingSlayerRBLX - 19 Jan 2022 I will miss the Streetdecks as they did suit the X-Lines Yellow Livery. But to B5’s get treated like this is great. Shame this will be the more popular B5LH and ruin the Diamonds moment. But I do understand the changes that are needed to tackle allocations for the Newcastle LEZ RE: X-lines X5/X15 | Re-allocation of Volvo B5 Hybrids from Percy Main - Dan - 02 Feb 2022 6067 is now in service at Consett on the X5/X15, with 6304 coming out of service in lieu (now at Saltmeadows for repaint). 6065/66/68 all due into service tomorrow. All fitted with white front destinations in addition to the tables internally.

What livery is 6304 getting? Durham 2025?

Euro 5 is still very clean, especially a diesel-electric Hybrid. Not quite good enough for the authorities though, so “super” low emission is pushing it.

Make sure you copy a larger area than you want, knock the opacity down to like 50% so you can see both, use the perspective warp tool to get the shape lined up, then use the eraser with the hardness turned down to blend it in. Works pretty much every time!

I definitely prefer the editing side to actually taking photos, although I did buy myself a new camera and a few lenses for 'Christmas' to try and get back into it. Not to take pictures of buses though, I do have a life and a reputation to uphold Having said that, I absolutely hate the more 'normal' editing of photos, I'd much rather spend my time in Photoshop 'uglifiying' people or editing new liveries onto buses!
