What then happens when Arriva start running some of the silver-red
trains then?

I can't imagine they are going to be able to re-paint the entire
Voyager fleet between the end of service on Virgin XC's last Sunday,
and start of the Arriva service the next morning!

As an aside, surely re-branding the Voyagers is going to be a huge,
long-term operations isn't it? They seem to have Virgin written pretty
much all over them!


No they don't - the only place you will find the Virgin Name/Logo is on the front of each unit. There is no other Virgin branding!

I'd be interested to see what happens if/when First loose Great Western and Scotrail - the HST and Scotrail 158s have the F-in-circle moulded into the back of each seat! Sand them off?!
