I hate looking at adverts, if there's an option to pay and not see ads, I'll pay it!

remember when the metro used to have entire trains wraped in advertising? looked ugly and cheap

as for 6337, with the paint freeze thats going at gne at the minute, i doubt it will be repainted into 2019 livery. they might just cover up the vinyls and put something on for the king.

It’s been stripped of its Platinum Jubilee vinyls
