Gutted about the Citaro's, is it the way to the back of the bus is set, hence the reason why they can't be upgraded to euro 6?

Vinyls removed from windows, the little 'indiGo' line vinyls have all been stripped from the bodywork, the cant rail has been vinyled over in black with a more generic message to future-proof against any potential future fleet movements, and a 'fares strip' added to the sun visor (there'll be a number of different variations).

I liked the idea of having those multicoloured lines on side of the bus, looks plain now.

Any other buses which enter South Tyne side getting the euro 6 modification?
