I have been informed via Flickr that 4762 has been branded for the 50, with blue branding.

lets hope i see it when i visit birmingham on Sunday. I've also got a feeling the 126 will gain new branding aswell.

For a split second thought I'd spotted it then, but it was just a 529 branded Trident on the 126 entering Dudley towards Brum at 4:15

Sky Blue or Dark Blue branding on 50. It will be same style on the CV 8/A but different color code.

I'm sure I saw 4762 on monday looking normal so they can't be repainting them :( I hope they at least sort the tatty bits out from where the old branding was removed, some of the back ends look shameful where the green has come off badly.

As I feared a simple case of stick it over the top :( I just hope 4741 doesn't get rebranded, or 4799 for that matter, would be nice seeing that on various routes.

It is good though, very smart, especially under the front window  :)

The branding itself is smart and the colour is gorgeous, but there's only so much you can do with a batch of scruffy 5 year old Enviros, YW need to take a leaf out of AG's book and rip the connection bars off completely where they've come away like that. Apart from that complaint though, I do like the look of this and it'll be nice to see branded 50s again!  Next Step NXWM, Get some 35 branding on 4370-4380!  ;) ;) ;)

Thinking about it, I wonder if this will have any effect on TGB and Diamond, it's been said before branded buses attract passengers...

Refurbish the YW Enviros before a rebrand, otherwise its a half job, seats on those buses are rock hard and threadbare and the paintwork isn't looking too fresh, even though this new branding looks quite good

It looks the same as the 51

That's my view too. Both routes operating into the city centre with the branding not too different as well as having similar numbers could cause some confusion to anyone whos not travelling with a brain!

Also my first impression. At least they don't cross paths  ::)

How come its applied as markets / city centre, when all the other places served start with capitals. Spoils the look.

I hadn't noticed that until now, dammit everytime I see a 50 It'll be the first thing I notice now!
