MAXX Blue (livery)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
MAXX blue is the livery used on some trains, buses and ferries operated for the Auckland Regional Transport Authority (ARTA).
[edit] Trains
Auckland's trains are operated by Veolia. Carriages are light grey or silver with a blue band along the windows. Driving cabs are blue and 'safety' yellow. Locomotives are blue with yellow ends and cabs.
[edit] Name
Contrary to popular belief, the name MAXX is not an acronym.
"MAXX does stand for something. MAXX stands for comfortable and attractive facilities for commuters; fast, frequent and more reliable transport services; and comprehensive transport information. MAXX is not another acronym, but a symbol of quality."(MAXX launch press release.)
