Arriva's aquamarine bus livery has been with us so many years one might have thought when it came time to change it they would come up with something even if not exciting at least a bit better. It is hardly inspiring but maybe as happened at Cambus who started off with just light blue they might realise it's not very eye catching and add something stronger to set it off. It was very cold in Stafford and buses like Plaxton Pointer bodied Dennis Dart 2371 were running around with snow clinging to their tops even though they had been out all day despite dropping into pot-holes and bouncing over speed-bumps.
I know I'm showing my age but, all these years after deregulation and privatisation, I still can't quite get used to the idea of (what should be) Midland Red buses being blue and now Wumpty buses being red!
ReplyDeleteAt least Arriva buses looked quite at home in Liverpool, but one of the First Bus Wright bodied Volvo deckers they painted in traditional PMT livery came into Stafford today and it did look a bit like a fish out of water.
