Not for much longer apparently. It's back in the paintshop getting the full swoops.

I think you've misunderstood me, either that or I've got the fleetnumber wrong! It's back out of the paint shop with full swoops but unlike some examples has white between the light blue and the skirt which looks much better.

Oh I see. Sorry I did misunderstand you. Ooops
I suppose it's a bit early for photos of the latest look for this one?

Another of the Bluebird Solo SRs has been re-painted into Stagecoach colours, however it seems to be missing a number in its fleet number. Should be 47822 (according to the publisher of the photo) but only displaying 4782.

Speaking of re-paints, it's a shame that Stagecoach didn't keep the B9TLs in Wigan, as they're looking quite smart now in Stagecoach colours in Fife.

It is a shame yes. That fleet number looks very small at the side. Apart from that is there a fleet number on the front. I can't see one.

Does anyone know why the B7RLEs have been removed from Nightbus work? last Friday and Saturday it was entirely B7RLE operated except a 628 which was a Enviro 200 yet this friday and Saturday was Entirely Enviro 200/300 although the seats are better in the enviros the ride quality just doesnt match an eclipse.
