Fleet List Updates - Archive - Dan - 21 Jan 2018
As we're making good progress with the Archive, I thought it would be worth having a dedicated thread where I could post regular updates for content being uploaded to our fleet list archive. This may allow us to fill in any missing gaps together.
Update: 21/01/2018
- Go North East 8319 - 8329 updated with more accurate delivery dates and information, and added photos to news items where possible (previously missed).
- Go North East 7094 - 7102 updated with more accurate delivery dates, and photos of them following entry into service.

Further Update: 21/01/2018
- Go North East 5320 - 5327 updated, now with a complete Vehicle History and individual photographs for all news items where possible.
Fair bit of information there for 5324 - got quite a lot of photos for it, too!

RE 5326: I seemed to remember it being repainted silver before being repainted gold. I've done some digging, and found a post by yourself from November 2014 confirming this. Unable to find a photo to go with it unfortunately!

Error on Dan's part I reckon as the rest of the batch were painted at the same time, 5320-24 went into Silver for the 61 with 5325 to 5327 going Gold for the 35/36.

A post from December 2014, again by Dan, mentioned that 5326 was to be repainted again, suggesting that the silver repaint did indeed take place.

Not an error as such, but slightly mistaken at the time.
Wasn't a full repaint as originally suggested - just accident damage repairs where a number of body panels were replaced ahead of its scheduled repaint.
