The paintshop manager has given permission for visitors to visit the paintshop on the tour but has set down a few rules

you need to explain to the enthusiasts prior to arrival to the paint unit, obviously no smoking in the workshop, no use of mobile phones in the area of the spray booth and mixing room, any enthusiast with serious asthma or breathing difficulties must declare it.
Frank will show them round but they must have an additional NX escort who will be responsible for them while they are on site and enthusiasts must stay in the group, no wandering off on there own.

sorry to sound like a pain but i have some serious kit in the paint unit and i don't want anybody coming to any harm.

tony, are you going to be there?

I think Tony will be there. If this becomes a success, I hope the next depots to be done should be: BC, PB or PE. What do you guys think?

I'd love to visit BC and PB, but I wouldn't turn down the chance of any other depots either :P

Been to PB twice first time both times theyve been pretty empty, but Did get the chance to see inside the garage properly and watch the buses come in after finishing there trips, so yes would recommend a trip there
