Bouncy castles return to FGW

[Mitch]

The 142 invasion has started. 142001 and 142064 were delivered to Exeter St. David's depot today. They are both in the old North Western "Gold Star" livery and at least 064 has some pink grafitti on it,
which might not be noticed bearing in mind the current FGW livery...

Bus bench seats?

Saying apparently goes ...

"All over blue ... It's MTU!"

Apart from 43160 of course.

In other news, was I hallucinating or did a 143 painted dark blue with big pink flying 'f's pass my HST outside BTM the other day?

I saw that at Temple Meads yesterday...it's got to be the cheapest, nastiest, livery that First have come up with yet. I presume (hope) that it's only temporary...aren't these units due for "Local Lines" at some point? Maybe it's covering up grafitti, but it looks really badly done.

From Lizardgen on SWRG:

143617 is currently running around in First Great Western Powercar
Blue after a Graffiti attack, where the original black was in too
pooerer condition to restore.

Saw that go past at abby wood today, man that looks a lot better than the Bristol advertisment, even if its only a temp paint job!

The ("Barbie" HST coach) "F" vinyls are missing bits already!
