Does anybody else think the MMCs look much smarter with the adverts off the rear windows?
Now the BC ones are being debranded they look much better and passengers can now see out of the rear windows!

The Yardley Wood ones (6147/6148) and the Acocks Green ones (2201/2202) look very smart.

With the adverts they look tacky in my opinion.

I agree, 6147/8 look immaculate and even the newly painted buses look good without any branding or adverts.

4938 on 900 with black branding
@JoNi - I surmise this means the black stripe is in tact? If that's the case, then (if it's anything like the WN-WA Trident transfers) could BC be getting a new branded route? ???

Why would the 63 increase ? In anything I would have thought it'd decrease if the express service becomes more popular and more people would be using it to go further instead of the 61/3.

4938 still has its black stripes and Evening saver branding on sides and back, together with "blob" on upper deck front window.

That branding will more than likely be kept, unless new route branding is due for them. None of ours have been de-branded

I don't know but reading the changes it will only be the 63 that will stop everywhere

Are the Sutton e400 still with their black stripes for a reason or they just haven't got around to removing them yet?
Local Routes: 002, 39/39A, X21, 46, 76.
Localish Routes: 18, 23, X22.

Think somebody mentioned that they probably won't be removed as their only price branding. Makes then nice an easy to spot though as I saw 4937 on the 29
