60677 busman, 60667 has already bit the dust Thank You 2101 I do hate these small fleet numbers  They are small for a reason though. If they are small they don't detract from giving a nice clean image from the front, hence the lack of fleet names as well, just logos. Pity some depots decide to then stick notices in the windows and defeat the whole objective of the exercise. |

Original still looks pretty neat to me though when compared with the new; www.flickr.com/photos/doncasterbusphotos/10310076234/Even better when freshly painted too. |

The new smaller Fnos are useless - the main problem is the loco style numbering - 5 no's !!!! why not keep local to 3 - 4 as the fleetnames are brill !!? |
