See I don't mind local brands personally, I personally think the way First is going is better than one livery. Make it more personal. EYMS nail it imo, have one uniform livery but then just have different writing on the side depending on it's area making it more personal; but also easy to swap them around if need be.
It doesn't help that the GoNorthEast livery is bland either mind. I know the blue / red is historic for the company but it's outdated imo whereas most other companies are going for brighter colours nowadays ie. both Arriva and Stagecoach.
