New Deliveries / New Livery & Branding Discussion

[Squiz1971]

Never really expected pink branding for the 37... Nevertheless, the look nice. The destination display 'halo' certainly looks better, being more of a rectangular shape, resulting in the outline of the display better, imo. Still. Something, to me, feels odd about E200's on the 37. ???

Pink branding reminds me of the metrobus THE 1 from the 90 & 00'ies when the 1 went to the town hall to terminate. The branding does look good on the new 200MMC's as others have said I too wonder what colour the 71/72 route branding will look like I guess we all will have to wait and see when they get delivered and get branded

Don't think anyone has mentioned NXWM's twitter... Here's some shots of the Platinum branding. I quite like the X51's rear branding, though the fleetnumber (6730), looks like it's applied too far from the right corner.

Very impressive I must say. The rear branding on both looks very slick and well presented, once again, Good job NX

Most Impressive, I have longed to see a photo of every vehicle type with every branding. That could potentially be a photo for the Main Site !

[Stevo]

Really good! This time last year everything was getting red and white.

Hear hear!

Not sure where to ask, does anyone know what the font is that is on the 'West Midlands' bits of the new crimson livery? Need to know pretty soon if anyone can help... PM me if you know...

Cheers!

An interesting article in the October issue of  Buses magazine with the author comparing the new liveries and interiors of the new Enviro200 and 400 MMCs in service in Birmingham.
