Repaint & Retrims 2018

[Trident 4609]

WN's 2001 and 5401 are both back in service after repaint.

[BK63 YWP]

Has another wn hybrid and a branded 2 bus took its space?

[Tony]

5402 is now being done

At the moment it is any '07' late onwards that's repainted will get Crimson which includes all single decks

There may be a couple of surprises out of the paintshop this year though

Unlikely as it is - I was rather hoping to see an all-blue NXC Trident (it could only really be one of 4450-54 as all the others are too old, although 4450/52 have already had two coats of blue & white).

2018 due out in service tomorrow, 2002 going in. 2010 also now in.

Like they're going to know that already....

Well as it is one of a batch of branded buses it doesn't take much working out

2001 was branded for the 2 but was on 25 on Tuesday

So you expect a guess then on a bus that isn't even at WN garage yet where they are going to allocate it?

@Tony is the plan for the crimson b7s at WN to crimson the branded buses for the 5/6/10 routes first before moving onto the other garages ?

[paulb1973]

It looks like repainted NXC 4841 [on Tony's pics] has gained the lighter version of the two-tone blue livery, not the darker version - is that right?! (Quit edit - perhaps it is the darker version after all)
