You may have already seen some or all of these. The second features Traveline South West, still showing the now erstwhile Shamrock Buses. They also still include Verwood Transport. And defunct rail operator Wrexham & Shropshire. Not that you will find timetables present.
And, following the recent popular post on liveries, who says Best Impressions have a monopoly on creativity?

Traveline South-West are useless. They've been showing the wrong frequency for First Dorset's routes 4 & 4b through July & August.
Am I the only one who is slightly surprised to see that the dreaded contravision is even allowed on the nearside front windscreen in some countries?
RC169 - No you're not the only one. But never underestimate the power of Photoshop.
Good point, NorfolkBoy.
It would be nice to have more information on the sources of the photos. Some of them, inevitably, arouse curiosity.
The Bern airport bus is definitely not a fake:-

Too much 'contravision'! - on the subject of which I had a ride on a Bournemouth Yellow Buses Optare Versa from the main railway station down to the pier on Saturday. These are nicely specified internally, but not without a smattering of 'contravision' over part of the side windows in order block my view out. Are there any other products on the market where the promotion of the product has a direct impact on product quality?!

Any contravision is too much!
As for your question about other products where the promotion impacts the quality of the product, I'll have to think about that - it's an interesting one!
I wish Stagecoach would learn the lesson with contravision- they've plastered it all over the front windows on their Newcastle double deckers. You can't see a bloomin' thing out of the front.
