Travel Express / Lets Go

[NXWM Spectra]

;D @ 4006 lmao. they really should smarten themselves up, and train a couple of their drivers at least lol

The amount of times people who know I like buses ask me who the hell "ACL Travel are"!

I don't think Travel Express would be half as bad if they removed previous operator's logos (and route branding) and put their own logos on all buses.

They used to put their logos in Green Lettering on the front panel under the windscreen on vehicles but at least if they had a simple livery which they could paint their buses into would look alot smarter straight away and would give them an identity :)

You've hit the nail on the head.
Or you've hit the Travel Express bus on the carpet.

I hate the seats on those Carlyle Darts. Although Bench seats are some of my favourite seats (Like on TWM Metrobuses) the seats on those darts are so uncomfortable!

Even if the livery was painted with pictures of the Queen all over them it would make no difference the buses & drivers will still be S***  ;D

While i agree about there lack of identity and poor drivers one thing that struck me as i drove in to Wolverhampton in my nice warm Van Hool T917 was that travel exprees buses all had bright lights inside and clear windows. NXWM buses all had frozen or misted windows and looked as welcoming as a cold bath.....

Talking of poor drivers, a TX bus pulled out of us from nowhere meaning our 59 had to slam on the breaks!
