Good to see Rotala steamrolling a repaint program but the all over blue livery isn't half drab, even with route brandingto enhance it, compared to their excellent more vibrant Preston Bus one. |

Well, the all over blue is surely better than the 1975-1987 CIE all over tan! |

Liveries are the hardest things on a bus to get right , you need something that doesnt show up too much dirt and is easy to clean in the winter if you can not use an all over wash . |

Rotala are absolute geniuses at it though. I'm sure they can come up with better than the 'Blue Diamond' livery, given their other works of art. |

Sure I'm sure I saw 30509 FJ 57 CYT in Bolton yesterday. Must be a recent transfer as it has the Red Diamond fleetname rather than the normal green. Looked a bit bashed too with new white rear end panels! Also there was a 635 branded MAN. |
