why change the branding of the 002

Because the previous branding had bubbled in places, peeled off in others, some buses were missing branding where windows had been replaced etc

Either that Optare logo or the Diamond logo is slightly off-centre, I'm presuming it's the latter. I know it's not a big deal, but it's pretty annoying to see for someone who gets all OCD about logo alignments and stuff.

It's the Diamond logo. It's closer to the offside headlight than the nearside headlight, so that tells you that it's not in the centre.

Nice photo, @Solo1.
This one appears to be YJ66 APO, which now carries the fleetnumber 30051. The branding looks good to, but the Swift Darts looked better imo. Atleast the branding is all straight and now been rushed like Diamomd have been known to do.

Is it me, or does the nearside branding on 30050 ramp up to meet the Diamond logo above the doors?

On 30051, the nearside branding is all level / Diamond logo lower to match the offside:

Can't believe I'm saying this.

Had a very nice bus today... https://flic.kr/p/2bw7mX9

I thought I hated Optares, but after driving the likes of 20884/20912/30967/30968 I quite like them now. It's just the Signature Solos that I can't stand!

Absolute rocket. Very very good bus. Actually managed to pick up the destination with this picture. Usually these Centrad displays don't get picked up on camera.

This will be a very interesting development to watch I imagine.

The concept of essentially converting a redundant 10+ year old, otherwise compliant, vehicle to electric.

Plenty of well built Euro 3 Wrightbus single and double deckers on the market. If this conversion proves successful, perhaps we'll see a lot more vehicles recycled rather than scrapped. (The ones in good nick of course).

Maybe at other companies, but as far as I know, Diamond aren't looking at converting any others. Oh, don't expect to be seeing them in service yet either, as they'll be launched once the whole batch is ready.

That's not the final livery for 30120 is it? That green is almost reminiscent of the 002 branded days when diamond put a lot of colour into their liveries.

Also anyone know what purpose 20989 will be at tividale for? I noticed Redditch equivalent don't spend much time in normal service. I was lucky to travel on 20988 on the 34 a couple of months ago.

It's the final colours, but it's awaiting the vinyls to finish it off. I did think it looked like the old 002 livery when I saw it from the front.

As for 20989, it's not for the Bromsgrove on demand service. It's staying at Tividale.
