Oxford bus 702 is a double deck Electroliner
Single decker, outwardly similar in livery to NX

Quote from: Rachvince53 on November 23, 2023, 12:47:44 PMSaw a Wright Eclipse 2 bus today in NX grey but with a fleetnumber 702 on the back. Not 2002 as that has a red stripe but this one didn't.  Heading down Penn Road out of service around 9.00am.
Any ideas?
Quote from: Tony on November 23, 2023, 07:48:01 PMCertainly not NX.
Are you sure it wasn't a dark green? Only eclipse ive seen knocking about with the number 702 on it, is former nxwm 1760 bx56xcd, which became fleet number 702 at green bus. Its been photographed on rail recently too. Im sure its been suggested a local operator has it in the west mids. (coastal liner?)

Is this going to be a refresh of the current livery already on it or will it be the new grey?

2174 is now at Walsall, so that eliminates the blue livery from AG with all 15 ex Coventry buses sorted.

WN 4995 is also now in paint

4762 now also at Walsall. It will get a coat of grey, but not a refurb

2118 could do with a paint or a touch up at least it's a right mess all down the drivers side.
