Seems Basingstoke might be about to get the grey, white and maroon treatment - bollards at the back of the station have gone from dark blue and white with red/orange stripes to grey and white!
As to the later start of the franchise, could the election have anything to do with this? Purdah can't be far off starting and I wonder if that has any impact on First/MTR getting things agreed with the DfT (i.e. if Ministerial sign-off is required)? Mind you, if there is going to be a later start date that would have to be signed off ASAP due to Purdah, which must be next week I'd have thought once Parliament is Prorogued.
Same happening at Egham
