Though I agree it makes sense for a financial basket case like GNE to move on assets it simply can’t afford

I think this is pretty much what is going to happen isn’t it? Or at least the vast majority, there’s clearly (as Dan pointed out in another thread) little regard to route branding. Little Pinks a permanent fixture on the 71 for months, now the X66 will be Green Arrow branded for the foreseeable, Violets and Blondes running around with branding for routes that were withdrawn months ago and have the QuayCity versas been painted yet? Not to mention ‘wrong allocations’ seem to be a bit more common Place than ever before, almost as if Company policy may have been somewhat relaxed.

I think in the future, route branding if it does stay will be reserved for the high frequency core services. The rest will go into standard a fleet standard livery.
