61125/6/7 have now moved from Bramley to Hunslet Pk. Hmmm.....not sure now this was permanent. It may have only been a short term loan as 61126 is back at Bramley today (Sat). I'll find out but if anyone can add anything please do so.

I wouldn't say they are on the 8's and 9's a lot because it's rare you see them now it's normally Wright Eclispse's.

Honestly? every time ive seen one its been a Strider and thats plenty of sightings over the past fortnight. I must concur with Simon here, from what I've seen it's nearly always a Strider, at least on the 9 anyway - do the 8 and 9 still interwork at Pudsey?

when i was up on thursday, i covered aload of 46's, 55's and other hunslet park routes that they used to appear on and nothing dropped. i only saw 61084 on the 85/7, so what other routes would you suggest for me to cover next time for hunslet park striders ? cheers

I would just phone up the general enquiries line. However, have you got space to keep the bus, I would imagine not so you're going to have to store it elsewhere which will cost money. Do you have a PCV license so you can actually drive it!? Last of all, I expect you will want to preserve either bus back to its original condition which will cost an absolute bomb! You don't need a PCV licence if it is for preservation. But you do need some other sort of licence (Can't quite remember which)

With me living so close to the route & wondering across Seacroft Footbridge after work i see a strider almost every night. The 46 can be different day in day out.One day you can get Volvo Alexanders (either type d/d) or the odd dart, M---UUB striders are the most often these days I think you would need a Cat C, which includes your PCV to drive said vehicle, but to preserve one you dont need anything aslong as you're not driving it.

As far as i'm aware the following are the only remaining examples in service: 61080/089/094/095/096/101/111/112/114-117/119-128 Also L113CRL 61046-9

A few more have now been withdrawn but I don't have a confirmed list yet. Looks like there's only 2 or possibly 3 K-reg left.
Anybody else able to supply any info? I won't get chance to update 'til next week?
Wright L113CRL 61059/062 (at least) have been working from Bramley recently but again not sure how many are being transferred. With the new B7RLE's now being delivered to CR it could well be that the whole batch to 61078 are moving which of course would 'see off' more Striders.

I believe that there are only 10 left in service at Bramley, including 61101, the last K-HUG.
So far this week, I have not seen any operating from Hunslet Park.
As I understand that 10 B7RLE's are due at Bramley, I can see that these may well replace all the remaining N113's.
61058 to 61066 have moved from CR to Bramley.

When did First run a last Leyland Olympian day with Roe/Optare bodywork.
Would the companies arrange this themselves or member of staff who would be interested in doing so persuade their employer to allow them to do so.
