YN54 VKA and east lancs omnidecker local fleet number 801, national fleetnumber 15411, is now in stagecoach livery, this is the first of the 7 omnideckers to be repainted and it looks really good.

Saw it in the yard fresh from the paintshop. It looks superb. Much better than the previous yellow and purple scheme it carried. Then again, anything is better than that yellow and purple livery, except possibly First's secondary livery (Barbie 2 - aka "the stickers livery") or that hideous lime green colour MASS use ! |

As I've also said several times before, I can't arrange for you to visit the depot. If you wish to ask permission, write to: Engineering Department Stagecoach Yorkshire Upper Sheffield Road Barnsley S70 4PP Don't be too upset if the answer is 'no'. Not sure what you mean about 'is W475 MKU in service' - it's been in service for the last 6 and a half years ! |

Yes, W475MKU has come back in from its repaint, though possibly only today; I caught it on the 52 this afternoon and it stank of paint. This bus has, as with most others had its interior reupholstered. I've not seen the final Terrier liveried DAF W478MKU all week so I suppose it MAY be in paintshop? |

Quite possible - they've generally being doing 1 Sheffield and 2 'Yorkshire' buses per week. That said there was a Terrier Dart SLF hanging around Barnsley depot the other day - may just have been here for other work though. Chesterfield are also doing Sheffield/Yorkshire vehicle repaints again - currently ex Barnsley and District B10BLE T550 AUA is there for repaint. |

The yellow and purple/blue livery was awful. YTC missed an opportunity to launch a brand new livery for the whole fleet based on red and blue.
