Repaints & Retrims 2016

[CL]

The E200s going to CV, why didn't they get painted into the 2 tone Coventry blue ?

I can assume that they haven't gone two tone as they could still be considered "too new" - albeit 2 years..

Or it's possibly just down to the fact that repainting them into two tone is much more time consuming? And of course, avoiding a 'messy' fleet. I surmise, whatever route they'd be allocated to, some exWN will be bound to appear off its route onto the 2/3 already using the Blue/White livery E200s that were new to CV. Having two different liveries operating the route may be confusing to some.. You'd be surprised. ;) Haha

It has been explained elsewhere that because these are transfers, not refurbs, that these buses will not get the new livery yet

[BK63 YWP]

Has 4427 been repainted @Tony as the latest list now contains 4429

Chris-if I'm right it hasn't yet been done. I have kept track of what has been repainted this year and I don't think it's been to Walsall yet. Tony can confirm if I've got it right....
