Nottingham Express Transit 203 'Bendigo Thompson' (11.05.2019)

Out goes the old and in goes the new... again! The very old livery used from 2004 may be history but the silver livery used after the very old livery itself will soon become history as Nottingham's Incentro Trams are set for a £3.5m revamp, with new livery to bring them in line with the newer Citadis Trams, new flooring, dark green and fluorescent yellow handrails and new white fluorescent lights as well. Perhaps it's a shame the old look is being phased out... well I liked the more warm white Osram fluorescent lights that have been commonly found in these trams! Oh well, a revamp must go on I guess with the new look! 203 is the first Incentro to wear the new livery and here, the tram is seen arriving, stopping and then departing Nottingham Station with a service from Clifton South to Phoenix Park. These trams will be repainted one by one to prevent the risk of disruption. Not too sure on what will happen to the outsides of the allover advertising Incentro trams of 206, 209, 210 and 211. I would preserve all the current looks on the trams though!
