The former Union Rep at Nuneaton, will always remember a poster up in the garage about speed limit signs having the 30 changed with pen to show "36" with "Dicko" written next to it in a banterous jab at him being flashed by the Old Hinckley Road speed camera with former 34398!
There's a bench next to the bus stops in Bedworth Town Centre dedicated to him also.

Are the Gold ADL Enviro 200 MMC's running on the 48 ? I didn't see any yesterday?! (25/2).

Saw 26211 (SN67 XDD) and 26216 (SN67 XDJ) on the 48 this afternoon.

Saw a pic of 26213 (SN67 XDF) and 26215 (SN67 XDH) on Facebook in service on 48 today.

Are all the Golds at Nuneaton route branded or not?
Don't judge me until you've walked in my size ten shoes.

I very much doubt the entire batch will be branded

I'd agree. The recent delivery to Porth had three at least unbranded.

The first plan I saw had the last three unbranded but the fleet numbers quoted then were those that were allocated to the South Wales golds.  The last numbered of the Nuneaton batch, 26226, has full 48 branding; I haven't seen 26224 or 26225.
I don't see what sense there is in having three unbranded.  The spares will inevitably turn up on other routes.  They're the only vehicles in this livery in Nuneaton so if you're waiting in Gun Hill for your bus to town and a Gold turns up with 17 displayed at the front, you're not going to be any more confused when you find out that it says 48 on the side.

Branded 26224 seen this morning

Stagecoach started new route "SL" last week which serves Malthouse Lane in Kenilworth once a day (Monday to Friday) replacing part of a morning 539 journey.

I took a picture of 15449 running it by the Castle on Friday - https://m.facebook.com/CovBusPage/photos/a.869764016528866.1073742611.369276339910972/874237489414852/?type=3&theater
