Doesn't this look familiar?

Yeah this has been mentioned before on here. Seen a Picture of an East Lancs Trident also in this livery

Sorry, must have missed it!

Does anyone know why the liveries were so similar? Even down to the painted area below the headlights

The Green Bus livery does look smart... Also, it's a great way to catch children's attentions, as most of their routes ARE for School Services... as I live near Handsworth, their buses use my street to get to the depot on Park Road

Sorry to bring back a dead topic... But I have a pleading answer to my best livery. I 'nominate' best livery to Lothian Buses. I just love the consistency of their livery, and how each and every one of their vehicles looks identical, deckers or not... My worst livery has to be NXWM, nothing can get more wrong than than that! I say they should've stuck with the TWM livery / Toothpaste Livery...

I like the design of the Reading Buses livery but think it looks particularly good on the Claret routes:

I do wish NX would come up with something more modern and imaginative.

@Liverpool Street I had one of those horrible hot sweat moments just now when I thought I'd maybe posted a link to something else I was looking at earlier... 😳
