https://www.yumpu.com/en/document/read/4...theastcouk - Just found that when looking for something else which suggests it came around early 2006. It's also crazy how much it's died over the years. Every 15 minutes all day and every 7.5 minutes at peak time

Then after it was all the liveries based off the corporate livery which only ever got onto a few omnicities I believe (maybe wrong). https://www.flickr.com/photos/83823112@N03/28347192875/ - that one.

Northumberland Park Metro was finished in Dec 2005 according to wiki. 
However, Mr Mitchellhill has dated a photo of the R19 in Sept 2004.

Presumably the R19 went somewhere else until Northumberland Park was opened.
I'm sure there will be a timetable or two kicking around. 

As well as the X10 and its livery and the variation of  corporate liveries for 'super route', there was the various X66 liveries - going way back to the times of the Nationals on them in the late 80s/early 90s. Plus the Expresslink stuff from the mid 80s onwards. 

There were the years of VFM, Wear Buses etc until the late 90s and apart from the swoops, I think that was it until the R19. 
Obviously from 2006 onwards, it was a paint factory shareholder's wet dream!

Edit. Just found this. https://logos.fandom.com/wiki/Defunct_Go...ast_Brands

Not sure how accurate it is (it's certainly not up to date), but it might help!
