I hated that express livery. My earliest memories was when everything started getting repainted into Wear Buses colours round this way.

It aint bandit country mate, we ain't cut-throats and desperadoes.

I remember the day the first Wear Buses Livieried bus came into Murton, it was a 254 I think, Optare MetroRider, I had known the livery was being introduced that day...I had been sleeping at my grandparents the night before. So the next day, I hung around Station Road and Station Estate, hung around, no new liveried bus, so hung around some more and hung around a little bit, after about 40-45 minutes of loitering around, finally it came, the Two Tone Green and Grey Metrorider, and to be honest I was dissapointed when I saw this
