First York 36509 - MF23 ZVW - a photo on Flickriver

First York 36509 - MF23 ZVW

            There were, in fact, two Electroliners operating on the 7 today, and this one was the one I was most inclined to get. So, not wanting to get a boring take by waiting for it at the same spot, I moved on up the road to somewhere a bit less familiar.

And here's your first proper glimpse on this photostream of the new FirstGroup livery: the '2024 Standard', as I coin it. It is a grey-and-purple affair that is accented with magenta stripes, finished with either the FirstBus logo or a [operator] Electric fleetnames depending on vehicle type. Seeing these on the new StreetDecks for York was a bit of a wake-up call - all that effort with the diesel StreetDecks for nothing! - but as time has rolled on, it turns out this will be the new group livery for 2024 onwards, roughly over five or so years following the introduction of the regional 'Urban' schemes. I will admit, inside and out, it definitely looks smart: a cut above the effort Stagecoach is trying to force on its customers. A shame, however, that unique local identities are being sacrificed for it.

Being my first 'proper' photograph of the new livery, as well as being a first 'proper' look at the new York fleet, First York's 36509, a 2023 Wright StreetDeck Electroliner BEV, rounds the roundabout at the York Designer Outlet at one end of the 'Red Line' Park & Ride 7 to said designer outlet.
