Very nice i wonder if the other ones on the 9 29 off Sunderland Presumably if it is it will be pushing with 123 on the front.

123 out for engine repairs

So the current livery as used on the 180s is the new style livery on the HSTs, mmmm looks good to me although I would have been more then happy with GC Mk1 livery.

 

[wensley]

It gives the fleet a standard appearance and is very striking. A trip to York is in order this afternoon to sample the new face of GC

Logo looks a bit large to me. Tacky.

 

[wensley]

Each to their own. There is a fine line between striking and tacky

Are the rumours true that 65 and67 have gone to Brush? I am surprised as these 2 have been regulars lately whereas 123 and 84 have put in guest appearances and i presumed were the least reliable pair which now seeems true about 123.

The rumours are correct. They left last week. They may have been regulars but they were prime candidates as both required some TLC!

Can i just ask, how long does it actually take for them to return from Brush?

Roughly 3 months give or take. If you want to join GCRG (link in signature) we post regular updates. Sorry for the plug but it's in response to a wuestion
