The odd bus in a heritage livery is bearable, but to paint all Coast Rd buses in that old fashioned livery is a terrible idea IMO. Drab old looking buses certainly won’t temp people out of their cars.
The only real benefit is Arriva
Least a repaint will hide all the odd bits of recycled paneling that is used when they replace a damaged one least GNE get the colour blending right
