Paint cover at Bury is 37281/5
Another one from the front:

If they're painting the bendies in to the new livery, then it might explain why I saw 31816 on the 135 this afternoon heading out of Manchester.
Also on Flickr, photos of 37296/9 in the new livery in Bury.

Why didn't these get the small white fleet numbers like the Bolton ones? Seen a pic of 37296 at OM next to BNs 37415 which showed 415 with the new fleet numbers together with "Greater Manchester" names and 296 without any and missing the f off the front. Is it a depot decision how repaints are finished?
Also, I hope the ones being sent to outside contractors come back in a uniform standard. Remember Arriva sending some B10BLEs to a painters in Blackburn and these coming back in a variation of their standard livery. Time will tell.
You are right, about the fleet numbers to be honest, the Bury repainted have so far disappointed, but I know of a big twist involving the B9s and bendis but I am not allowed to make it public yet
