120 not in service for about 4 days is it being refreshed and will it lose the Sheffield livery before returning ?

If 120 is currently undergoing a mechanical refresh it is unlikely that a repaint will occur at the same time unless the current paintwork condition justifies it.
The heritage livery has now served its purpose so losing it is not a problem in my view though 120 will probably retain the livery until its next scheduled repaint, after all repainting 120 without good cause would cost money and reduce fleet availability unnecessarily.

How about you stop moaning. Sean is right if the public don't see it for one day ie its in sheds for maintenance, I lose count of the amount of people ask where it is and if it has gone for repaint. Sometimes if people have brought their kids or grandkids out for a ride on tram they are specifically looking for tram 120. |

And I'm sure all these families and their children are on an enthusiast forum double checking. It's pointless clogging up a thread saying '120 on yellows' '120 on blues' every day until it gets repainted - I agree it's probably useful for a tram conductor to know whilst out and about but clogging up the forum with this serves no purpose. It's much simpler to let people know when it is getting repainted.
