Could 19227/8 from Ashton and 19220/1/2 19235/6 at Stockport be swapped if the whole 19220-19239 batch were to become Magic livered

I thought they were painting the oldest Enviro400's Blue. Seems odd that there are still 56 and 07 reg Enviro400's (some not in the best condition!) knocking about while the decenter 08 reg ones are going blue. I'm assuming the older Enviro's don't meet this low emession saga on Oxford Rd hence why younger ones have been done.

Have to say I was lucky enough to see a photo of the first painted Enviro400 in the paintshop last week and wasn't too impressed but having seen photos of them on the road returning to Shartson they actually look really good with the branding etc. One thing I have noticed is that they seem to have followed First and applied very small front fleetnumbers with normal side and rear ones - a pain when labelling photos!
