And it looks dreadful. Stevie Wonder did this one It seems

I dont know why the side logo's have been removed off them, if new branding is going to be applied then remove the side logos when this happens as now the marks these logos have left when they have been removed are dreadful, 1848/9/50 all looking tatty on the outside.

If NXWM will re-brand the 404, I'm guessing it may be in the X96 style, so the logo's will be probably put on the red above the cab window in white, so that may be why the big logo's were removed from the side.

Yeah i guess the logo's would have to be moved on the side for any new branding, but until any new branding is applied thought it would be better to keep the side logo's as it makes the vehicle look smarter in appearence and gives the bus a better identity to which company it belongs to.

1854 and 1855 now debranded from the 404 but still on the service today, i like the way Walsall Garage are purposely debranding the omnilinks in order of fleet number.

4044 debranded from the 451 the mega rear for the branding at the back is still on though probably if it was taken off it would look quite shabby. All the branding on the side and the front has been removed but still leaves an outline of where it once was.

I think they actually look better with the large side fleet names, but I'm not a big fan of the Omnilinks at all.

I was in West Bromwich bus station waiting for the 410 back home and i saw the new route branding for the 5 from sunday and i must say it suits the buses better than the orange branding on other buses.  8)
