15986 now complete!
The first bus in the new Coastliner livery 15986 (YN64 XSO) has now finally had its missing bit of yellow swirl added, the map affixed to the rear and a subtle change to the brand name which is now '700 Coastliner', rather than 'Sussex Coastliner', probably because a third of the route is in Hampshire! This change had been preceded by bus stop flags receiving new '700 Coastliner' branding in the new style, so it's not really a surprise. 15983 (YN64 XSK) at least has also now been fully branded and has '700 Coastliner' branding all round, whereas 15986 still has 'Sussex' on the sides (which you can't see on the picture). It's also now been transferred to Worthing (ex-Portsmouth) and is seen here at Castle Square in Brighton. It's a Scania N230 with Alexander Dennis E400 bodywork. Looks good.
