First Midland Bluebird Volvo B7RLE/Wright Eclipse Urban

An urban road ahead spells the end of the blues....

 

With the introduction of the new First ‘Urban’ livery to all of First’s Scottish fleets, it means the end of buses in the rather pleasant two tone blue livery introduced by both First Scotland East in West Lothian and Midland Bluebird. This now disappearing livery is demonstrated here by 69257 (SK57ADO) which was new to the company in 2007. For a while, this bus carried an all over pink livery for the Falkirk Loop service but it was then repainted into the two-tone blue. Note the pink slash towards the rear, advertising that the buses accept Contactless payments.

 

In case you’re curious as to what this previous pink scheme was, it can be seen here:- flic.kr/p/MATL2L
