No sooner has we speculated that Nottingham Express Transit 208 was about to enter the workshops for its refurbishment than it was seen in service carrying a revised livery. You may remember that this tram has recently been stripped of its advertising vinyls for e-on with 206 taking on this advertising contract but rather than be immediately withdrawn from service 208 has now had a white stripe applied to its body below the windows along with numerous external adverts including several for the Combat Bullying charity.

I quite like the ‘new’ livery. Far better than the revised mainly silver scheme the rest of the fleet has been getting.
