New route branding introduced

 
Good evening everyone, welcome to my new blog post. You may remember that in Summer this year, I published a blog post on SP60 Enviro400s replacing ADL Enviro300s on the 1/1A. Very recently, new ONE branding was introduced after the route not being branded for a while because the Enviro300s lost their 1/1A branding last year and earlier this year. This is because of some service changes taking place next Monday that involve the 1/1A.
 
Only one Bus wears the new ONE branding at the moment and it is ADL Enviro400 19652 ( SP60 DPU ) which was one of a batch new in 2010 to the Tayway 73 in Scotland. The new ONE branding is really basic and it isn't very detailed. 19652 was taken out of service for a number of weeks to under go its transformation. It has been repainted, had its purple removed from the destination blind, had its fleet number applied again and the new branding applied.

This is just the first Bus to receive the branding and with the other members of batch to follow in the new year. I boarded this today and it is still sounds the same as it did when I last went on it. Although it is really basic, Stagecoach have done a really good job with the branding.
