Sorry if I’ve missed this, I’m more of an Arriva follower, but regarding the green First livery in Leeds, what it is the significance of the different colour relief, eg some buses have orange relief, some red, some dark blue etc?

It's supposed to be "corridor" branding - red for services running up Headingley Lane, dark blue for Roundhay Park / Middleton, orange for the Thorpe Park services, and green for general service. I haven't quite got to grips with what grey means yet, except it's roughly east to west, but I'm sure someone else can enlighten us.

Grey is for service 4/16 But also 49/50/50A, which is what made me unsure.

One seems to be a paler, mustard colour whilst there's a mango orange colour on the X26 X27? Or is it the same?

Or is it the same? Most likely just slightly diff shades as the older ones are Vinyl wrapped as it used to be red and new ones are actually painted yellow/mustard. That will be why.

Are they just reducing the number of Zest buses, or is the whole Zest thing coming to an end?

I know it's not West Yorkshire but has anyone seen the new liveries for Doncaster and Sheffield, if only we in Bradford, Huddersfield, Halifax could get attached to First Midlands too.
