Theyre the last two WB Geminis to be done isn't it or are there plans for 4700 - 4710 to go in before they go anywhere if they do

Trident 4194

I saw 4672 whilst in Kings heath yesterday, it looked brand new, Imo they are good at refurbishing vehicles

Hope this is the right thread to ask but as delivery of the E400 MMC's has commenced what are the implications for the now 'old' red and white livery? Question has been asked in the past but no one appears to have an answer. Is it likely that NX will want to run with 2 liveries for what could could be up to 10 years? Now that the new livery is about to hit the road surely NX must have made a decision!

The whole business is going to be taken over by Stagecoach and re branded Midland Red, so NX won't have any say ;)

Wishful thinking perhaps??

Having said that will be interesting to see if Stagecoach/Virgin do a better job on the East Coast railway line than NX did.

Slightly going off piste their lol

This is like trying to find out something covered by The Official Secrets Act. Does anyone, including NX, know what the answer to the question is?

The fact the no one has answered your numerous posts asking the same thing, No!

It's been asked several times now - I am fairly sure NX are holding the new livery for just the new buses to make it clear, or at least main route corridors. Would make sense.

But surely that creates a two tier bus company, first tier will new buses and livery and the other with older buses and an old livery.

I just can't understand it, they have only just finished getting all buses in the current livery, and then they create a new one????
Pensnett is my local garage. Favourite bus of all time is Fleetline 6360 (KON 360P).
