The brand names used on these things is basically irrelevant. There's so much silver and black, that's all you see at the roadside, up close and at a distance.

The yellow stripe stands out in the daylight, but I'm guessing the short shelf life of QuayCity and the general shit show that GNE's approach to branding these last few years means that won't be meaningful for 99% of punters.

The neon certainly stands out, but what use that actually is, is not clear, given the ongoing ambiguity of what these colours signify, be that a route or a power source.

The whole thing seems daft at a time when I thought GNE was getting back to corporate or network level branding.

But I guess if its really true that X-lines = rapid long distance then Red/Gold/Silver X1Q1 VoltraKiteRider is an issue for 2030 or beyond.
