New Deliveries / New Livery & Branding Discussion

[Trident 4194]

When are they releasing an X70 branding?

The PVR must only be about 5/6 not Much point in branding for 5/6 buses

[SK68MEV]

They're not

wouldve loved branding for them I could imagin it in my head

[cardew]

They will have tachographs for use on Private Hire so not ideal for branding

26 in a week is impressive.

Got my hopes up, I though one of my favourite Fleetlines had been resurrected! Haha

Just another passing thought regarding previous remarks,

It's been confirmed that subsequent new deliveries will be built to Platinum specifications, has it not? Then would this include the 10 Enviro 200 EVs that are due at Coventry in the next 17/18 months? - in turn, resulting in the first single-deck Platinum route ???

I'm intruiged, and (frankly) quite excited if that's the case. :D Apologies if this has been raised before; I may have missed it.

Nothing has been confirmed beyond the current order, the trend is that high spec buses are now becomming the norm, but that's it.

The 10 x Electric Single deckers for Coventry were only confirmed in the local press as being due along with a picture of the demo E200MMC. Again, I'm not aware an order has actually been placed yet.

The multi-year ADL contract must be due to expire, can't see any reason why ADL won't continue to supply NX though.
