Hmm, looks like they are going for a very SWT approach to things doesnt it. Bearing in mind they own SWT, they are probably wanting to keep things all the same

This is what I want to do to Stagecoach for thinking up that horrible livery lined up against the wall of one of their train depots :snipersmile:

Why not just keep the basic SWT livery (the blue, white and red) and replace the SWT text with EMT?

What I was thinking of is having the part just above the undercarriage in blue with the area above it to the roof in plain white with the doors as they are in red, a simple livery.

White Sides = Express
Blue Sides = Regional
Red Sides = Suburban

So I’d expect the DMU’s to be blue.

They work express trains calling at Leicester and Nottingham only, for example!
