Is it being painted for publicity purposes?

Most recent 'cartoon' style publicity from Nx has featured both crimson & red/white vehicles.

Is there a point where company publicity will concentrate soley on promoting the crimson livery?

The older buses will soon be withdrawn so.no point in painting them only to be withdrawn a few years later

Because it makes commercial sense, you will see why soon

will 853 and another be refurbed for the 54?

I see 2015 is the latest 3/4 branded to go for repaint, leaving us with just 2017/18 branded.

Will the same buses be branded for the same routes once all of WN's B7RLE's are Crimsoned?

Will 4733 be a Crimson Repaint @Tony?

DJ

What's going on with 850? Will it be in a black and silver livery as parts of the front have been changed, or are they just replacement parts that will be painted in due course?

Ah, good to hear. There's already enough different liveries going around right now, I don't think I'd like another one!  ;D

Hi, @Tony. 1843 isn't in the paint shop. It was out on the 39 today, still in red and white livery with Leamore Windows & Conservatories rear ad.

I've just seen the photo of 853 that's up on the main site, I've got to say, I think crimson looks amazing on the E200s, it's way nicer than the red and white livery. In fact, I don't think there's any bus in the fleet that doesn't look better in crimson, to be honest.

I agree with you, suits the E200's. Way better than the red/white. Hope an Omnicity will go Crimson (I highly doubt it now though).
