Its best to wait and see what happens, they haven't announced what they are going to do yet.

But if what @Michael Bevan orriginally stated is correct then the NX pass would still exsist.

I believe that the idea is going to be to integrate certain routes where multiple operators are competing on at the moment. So this will be routes such as the 301/302, 42/43, 4/H/M etc. I believe NXWM and Diamond will be the first two operators to launch this livery. I think the idea behind this is that the two operators competing on a certain corridor will actually work together. They will be running a joint frequency, with buses in the same livery and will be able to issue and accept each other's tickets only on these integrated routes. Which means you can technically buy a Diamond Network Ticket from an NXWM bus on the 301, or an NXWM Daysaver off a Diamond bus on the 42. I think that's the idea anyway of how it will work. I think the next few months are going to be really interesting for the West Midlands bus scene...  ;)

Will the rest of WB Enviro 200's be Crimsoned or will they receive the Combined livery due to the changes on the 42/43 service.

No, none of them do as of yet.

Thanks for that. Suspect they will be done en masse when all are repainted.
