New Deliveries / New Livery & Branding Discussion

[don]

Not quite, two was to pull away (Go), three was don't bother picking

Could that be why they seem to pass through repaint and retrim so quickly compared with Trident/Alexander's - more robust and thus take less fixing?

Wright's Panels basically just click off and take a lot less time to replace damaged ones than those on Alexander/Alexander Dennis products

Thanks for the insight, Tony - It's really noticeable how much more quickly they go through the works.

I had my first ride on one today on 6109, yes the heaters were very loud but at the same time the bus wasn't too hot, it was nice and cosy but not overpowering.

Went on one of the new E400s today. It was alright.  :D

However, I came back from Halesowen on 4806, that was pretty impressive, these can shift when they (or the driver!) wants to.

Oooh!

Oh wait, these aren't impressive?

[the trainbasher]

A bit off topic, but I'm on 6111 and someone has dropped a load of mini eggs on the floor and they are rolling around everywhere making a racket. Every so often one rolls to the front where I'm sat and pops out under the door. Is it bad that I find this very entertaining?

its entertaining :-)

Which depot do the new buses go to on delivery from the coachbuilders, for having fare machines fitted and being branded before they are despatched to depots' like Coventry.

[Tony]

Depends. There's no fixed place. This year's have already been delivered to4 different garages

870 on 244

Any timeings off dudley please  :)

[The Real 4778]

Today's Metro features a full page ad for the 171 new buses.

Strangely it depicts all 171 in new liveries.
65 saloons in red
48 deckers in red and
58 deckers in pewter

So how come the saloons in the Marketing Department don't match the deliveries?
