Title: 'Classic' B7TL line up
Post by: MW on July 09, 2017, 07:17:51 AM
I use the term 'classic' very lightly of course. All 3 types of B7TL lined up. Just thought it was worth a share. I'd love to preserve a Gemini. Just not sure what I'd do with it once it's done!

He's responding to me saying I'd love to preserve a Gemini, but once it's done, what would I do to it. That's if they're available at the time of course

Why do you need to point that out, when anyone who looks at the picture of it in 2005 can clearly see it.

Limited intelligence. He's also got difficulty when using capital letters.

If the Geminis stayed at CV, it would have been great seeing 1 in Coventry 2 tone blue, one of the 47** in green and a crimson Gemini together.

They wouldn't be in two tone blue because of the phatetic excuse given for not painting the Enviro400s on the 21 in the new livery. They would look good thogh

Personally I think it's horrible.  The new livery is GREAT!

I think it's the best livery that they've ever had, especially on B6BLE's. I did like the toothpaste one on the OmniLink's, though. It really suited them imo.
