Repaints & Retrims 2017

More than likely

So much for the corporate look! (in Coventry). Suppose it makes us a bit different. I don't think any other Enviro 400's have received a full repaint into the 'old' livery since 2015?

[Tony]

No Coventry Enviros had ever been repainted, so....I think you right!

[Trident 4194]

These alx 400 PB are they getting repaint and refurb inside?

No they aren't being refurbished, just a repaint.

4837 will get the new two tone blue like the 57 plate E400's & 4833 & 4836 @paulb1973

Here's 4833 today (7th April) on Queen Victoria Rd, Coventry in its blue/white livery:

Surely no one cares what they look like externally- would much rather see a refurb???

Sadly due to other commitments I didn't have time to create an Enviro in Coventry Corporation colours as an April fools joke!

So is the new livery just for WiFi buses or not?

No, as none of the red buses have WiFi. It just seems people in Coventry think the new blue livery means WiFi is on that bus. Stupid idea to stop new Coventry repaints getting the new blue livery

1762 back in service in Crimson, completing WA's batch of B7RLE's.

4507 is now back at Perry Barr after having the crimson treatment. Just saw it pass me on Kingstanding Road with an engineer driving it on a run to Kingstanding Circle then back to PB.

[John]

4285 is out on the 65/7

[Westy]

Are all Walsall's Scanias getting a repaint next, or are some being held back, depending on when they had a red & white repaint?

(Think the one's I'm refering to were the ex PB's that have the fleetname above the door / drivers side rather than in the centre!)
